Nathan Lyon joins Muttiah Muralitharan and Harbhajan Singh in the 200-test-wicket club

Australia`s Nathan Lyon on Thursday became the country`s first off-spinner to bag 200 Test wickets, during his team`s first Test against Sri Lanka in Pallekele.

Lyon claimed Sri Lanka`s Dhananjaya de Silva, who was caught at midoff, to reach the milestone in the second session of the third day`s play, triggering celebrations in the Aussie camp.

Lyon, who had already passed former Australian off-spinner Hugh Trumble`s tally of 141 wickets, has now picked up five wickets in the game which looks evenly balanced.

Here are the off-spinners with most no. of wickets in Test cricket:

M Muralidharan 800

Harbhajan Singh 417

Lance Gibbs 309

Graeme Swann 244

Saqlain Mushtaq 208

Nathan Lyon 200*
