Rishabh Pant's innings came to an end courtesy of an absolute blinder by Cameron Green at gully.
Pant was sporting glasses with neon rims on the first session of Day 2 of the Gabba Test.
The ongoing Test is his 100th and Lyon is looking to get his 400th Test wicket in the series. The Rohit Sharma wicket just prior to tea was his 397th.
Rishabh Pant went a little too optimistic with his appeal and Ajinkya Rahane and Rohit Sharma couldn't suppress a laugh.
While the batting set-up looks decent, it's the bowling attack which can let India down on a bouncy Gabba wicket.
The Indian camp has been plagued with injuries to many key players in Australia.
A new and longer video of Steve Smith scuffing off crease during the third Test suggests the Oz star batsman did the act after the groundstaff draw fresh crease during drinks' break.
Vaughan came down heavily on Smith for the incident saying that the former Oz skipper has let his team down again by scuffing off Rishabh Pant's guard.
Smith was caught on stump camera trying to remove Pant's guard during the fifth day of the third Test as Australia tried hard to get rid of the left-handed wicketkeeper-batsman who went on the counter-attack.
A video footage showed Smith scuffing up the batsman's guard during drinks break in the first session on Monday. Pant scored a fluent 97 to raise India's hopes for a win.
The Indian batting unit displayed tremendous grit on Monday as it hung on for a memorable draw against Australia in the third Test to leave the four-match series levelled at 1-1.
Both Tim Paine and Steve Smith were panned by fans and experts alike for their unsportsman-like conduct during Tuesday's drawn Sydney Test.
India could also draft in either Mayank Agarwal or Prithvi Shaw as a specialist batsman.
Team India showed great character and resilience in the third test match against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
The trio of Pujara, Pant and Ashwin navigated through a hostile Australian bowling attack on the final day to snatch a remarkable draw against the home team.
Aussies were left frustrated as Vihari (15* off 160) bats out the day with hamstring as he forged an unbeaten partnership with Ashwin to earn Team India a morale-boosting draw at the SCG.
While Ashiwn and Vihari handled the Aussie pace attack and spin wizardry of Nathan Lyon pretty well, Ashwin admitted that the pitch was of no help in the partnership especially with Pat Cummins coming at them with all his mights.
Vihari (23* off 161) bats out the day with hamstring as he forged an unbeaten 250-ball 62 partnership with Ashwin (39 off 128) to earn Team India a morale-boosting draw at the SCG.
Australia's Steve Smith shadow-batted as he came to the crease after the drinks break, and proceeded to remove Rishabh Pant's guard marks.
Rishabh Pant fought an elbow injury to lead India's counter-attack after the early blow in Ajinkya Rahane's dismissal on Day 5. However, he missed his century by merely 3 runs.
