Australia defeated India by 209 runs to win the second edition of the ICC World Test Championship at The Oval in June 2023, making it their maiden win of the two-year championship cycle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIndia\u2019s got the wood over us in the past few series, but if you\u2019re looking at the World Test Championship (final) in England, we were able to beat them there, and I know that should give us a bit of confidence heading into (this summer).\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe understand that we\u2019re coming up against a world-class side, but we can take a lot of confidence out of where we are at as an Australian cricket team. I feel like we\u2019re on the journey to becoming a great team. We\u2019re not there yet, there\u2019s a bit of work to do, but we have the opportunity to do something pretty special this summer,\u201d said Lyon to Fox Sports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
India has won its previous two Test tours of Australia by identical 2-1 margins, but heads into the upcoming marquee series on the back of a 3-0 home series defeat at the hands of New Zealand earlier this month, with their star-studded batting line-up looking vulnerable against facing spin bowling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Lyon, though, expects India to bounce back during the Test series in Australia, to be played in Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. \u201cI think they\u2019re extremely dangerous. They\u2019re a class outfit, and they know their best preparation and how to come out here and perform.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
