Occasional Digest - a story for you

Australia off-spinner Nathan Lyon will miss the rest of the Ashes series against England with the calf injury he sustained in the second Test at Lord’s.

Lyon suffered the issue on day two of the encounter when he pulled up as he ran to field a ball.

He hobbled out to bat for his side on day four and scored four runs as he added 15 with Mitchell Starc.

Cricket Australia said Lyon’s absence from the remaining three Tests was because of a “significant calf tear”.
