Nathan Lyon deserves more respect

**** I was expecting heaps of trolls and uninformed mongs chiming in with comments along the lines of "Lyon is a badder bowler than everyone cos he sucks at doing cricket." That's roughly the quality of 2/3 of posters on cricinfo.

I'm appreciating the level of knowledge and understanding displayed here during my brief stay so far. Should have joined ages ago instead of spamming the ****e out of my only mate who has a hint of interest in cricket. He's well and truly grown tired of my incessant rants on cricketing minutiae.

:laugh:

I spam the **** out of two specific mates (who know a lot about cricket tbf) but CW gives a far wider range of opinions (and one of my mates bags me about Kohli 24/7 and calls him Lohli)*. Its a great place.

Welcome. :cool:



















* said mate has a long-term bet with me re: Kohli vs. Chandimal. Said mate is not a Lankan either, just loves Chandimal.

Lyon rips it enough on Australian pitches.

He also gets good bounce, that all bodes well for being a decent bowler in India imo.

I reckon it will be between Ojha and Lyon for the top wicket taker.

I'm not your mate, all right.

It's a pity Ahmed is almost 34 years old or else he might have been able to push for a gig for Australia down the line. Given his background that would have been a remarkable story.
Well apparently:

- He claims to only be 30; and
- He'll be eligible later the year

Much, much stranger things have happened.

Will all the stereotypical VB drinking bogans change their minds on refugees if Fawad spins us to back-to-back Ashes victories?
