Didn’t Really See Any Bazball In My Two Tests Against England, Says Australia Spinner Nathan Lyon
Nathan Lyon: Australia’s veteran off-spinner Nathan Lyon said he did not see any kind of 'Bazball' being played by England in the two Ashes Tests he played against them earlier this year, before missing next three matches due to a calf injury.
The ‘Bazball’ term came into being on the basis of ‘Baz’ nickname of England’s Test coach Brendon McCullum. “I’m 2-0 against Bazball so I am happy. It’s a load of shit, if you ask me. It’s a brand of cricket that the English want to keep going with. Now it’s in the dictionary which is pretty extraordinary,” said Lyon on Channel 7's Front Bar show.
The series, which ended in a 2-2 draw, was hugely overshadowed by Jonny Bairstow being stumped by Alex Carey during the second Test at Lord's, which sparked a big debate over the 'spirit of cricket' notion.
