Know which Young Batter of India Keeps Nathan Lyon ‘Awake At Night’
All the cricket fans are waiting for the highly-anticipated clash i.e. five-match Test series between India and Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The spinner of team Australia Nathan Lyon has been a part of multiple Test series against India already but when asked about which India batter is keeping him ‘awake at night’, his answer was neither Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma. During an interaction he was asked the question by former Australia cricketer Brad Haddin and Lyon replied that it is YashasviJaiswal.
Jaiswal has not played a Test against Australia yet but his performance in the home series against England has Lyon slightly worried ahead of the series.
Lyon said, “There’s a lot of thought going into it. Obviously, I have come across the majority of them, but Jaiswal is someone I haven’t. I had a couple of good chats with Tom Hartley [of England] just about how we went about it. I know we are totally different spinners but when Jaiswal went after him, that’s something I can pick up from him and hopefully put that into play. Just watching the whole lot – Sarfaraz coming out. Will he be in there or will it be Rahul? I don’t know. They are full of superstars. It's pretty special.”
The cricket team of India has won the last two Test series that they played on Australian soil and Lyon made it clear that if Australia want to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, they will have to score “big runs”.
