<p>The off break bowler, Nathan Lyon has proved to be a long term prospect for Australia in the longer format. He has bowled splendidly and has been among wickets, plucking them whenever his team counted on him. As he rolls his arm, he would be closing on to a rare feat this year.</p>
<p>&#8211; Lyon is just 15 wickets short of 200 Test wickets.</p>
