R Ashwin hails 'GOAT' Nathan Lyon on entering 500 club

Australia off-spinner Nathan Lyon on Sunday became the eighth bowler to reach 500 test wickets, holding the ball aloft after trapping Pakistan's Faheem Ashraf leg before for five to claim the milestone in the series opener at Perth Stadium. The 123-match veteran, affectionately nicknamed "The GOAT", further cemented his place among the "greatest of all time" during the third session to join Australia greats Shane Warne (708) and Glenn McGrath (563) in the illustrious 500 club.
