Nathan Lyon Offers to Help Australia's Spin Department at World Cup
Experienced Spinner Ready to Play ODI Cricket Despite Calf Injury
Nathan Lyon, a seasoned spinner, has stated he is prepared to support Australia's spin unit if needed at the present ODI World Cup in India.
owing to Ashton Agar's absence from the ICC event owing to a calf strain, Australia may encounter some difficulties in the spin department. Australia would feel the lack of a slow bowler, especially in spin-friendly conditions in India, with only specialist spinner Adam Zampa and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell as their other options.
"The other day, when I realized Ashton Agar was out, I texted Andrew McDonald. Just to let you know, I'm back bowling 10 overs, and I'm 100% ready to go. Lyon was quoted by espncricinfo as saying, "If that happened, I would do whatever to go there and play in the World Cup.
If I had to, I'd feel more than confident doing it indoors. But in order for that to happen, a lot of other things would have to go wrong, so let's hope it doesn't for the good of Australia.
Lyon expressed his hope that the candidates would run a strong campaign and ensure that they would succeed in their objectives once they arrived in the country.
Lyon's calf injury, which caused him to leave the Ashes in England earlier than anticipated, appears to be healing in time for him to return to competitive cricket.
