Aus were scared and they wanted a wicket by hook or crook and Lyon absence only motivated to do it. also, Starc dismissal of duckket which was ruled not out on basis of MCC book irked Oz really much, so they thought of giving rule book taste to OZ back and did this.

Cricket World cup me 10 me se 4 teams ko to hath pakad kar lana padta hai.
Football vs Cricket is like US vs Somalia.
