Ok, but the exact same can be said about any wicket Lyon has every got? Most spinners tbh....

Not going to see me talk Lyon up as the next big thing itbt, but Lyon gets drift, large spin at times and bounce. Petersen doesn't really do any of them. He's going to get exposed if he keeps playing. I think you should be going with someone else.

Yet to see Lyon spin it much, and if so not anymore than Robbie. Peterson is just not as bad as you are making him out to be, but the truth of the matter is, we don't have anyone else. Tahir is freaking terrible, and we don't have any FC spinners knocking at the door.

Well you haven't watched much of Lyon then. He gives it a good rip and when conditions suit he can really get it going, like in Adelaide.

honestly, I don't mind. it's kind of good in a way in that I wouldn't like us to be no.1 until we actually are no. 1. And SA are definitely a better team than us at this stage.

Would've been strange being no.1 with a team that is, at best, a work in progress and has lots of holes in it
