ODI World Cup: Nathan Lyon Waiting Patiently On The Sidelines If Australia Need Spin Reinforcement | Cricket News

[ad_1] Veteran spinner Nathan Lyon has said he is ready to reinforce Australia's spin department if his services are required during the ongoing Cricket World Cup in India.

I said, 'Just to let you know, I'm back bowling 10 overs, I'm right to go, 100 per cent'. If that happened I'd do anything to go over and play the World Cu...

[ad_1] Former Australian cricketer Mike Hussey believes spinner Adam Zampa and all-rounder Mitchell Marsh will play a crucial role in the team's bid to clinch the World Cup in India later this year. Leg-spinner Zampa, 31, was first picked in Australia's limited-overs squad in 2016 and since then has played 79 ODIs taking 131 wickets.
