Written by Fox Cricket that the days of Nathan Lyon have come to an end. He will be a part of the team for a few days now. Former veterans Shane Warne and Stuart McGill were also part of the team for 37 years. Nathan Lyon could not spread his magic even on spin friendly pooch. After which demands are being made to drop the 35-year-old from the team and retire.
David Warner can also be out
Australia’s veteran player David Warner can also warm the bench in the second Test. Already Warner’s records in India are not special and in the first test he scored only 11 runs in both the innings. The visiting team can consider Travis Head in his place. Talking about Warner’s record in India, only 399 runs have come out of his bat in 9 Tests.
