The veteran off-spinner has dialled up the Australia selectors to urge that he can still play every Test as he enters the concluding stages of his recovery from a "pretty traumatic" hamstring injury. Lyon has been out since tearing his hamstring off the bone in the third Ashes Test in December. However, his rehab has been on track to be fit for the home series against Bangladesh in Darwin and Mackay.
The off-spinner bowled at Cricket Central in Sydney on Monday morning and plans to bowl on turf wickets against batters in the upcoming days. "It's been quite a long process from the Adelaide Test. We're probably two-thirds through it now ... it's a pretty traumatic injury," said Cricket Australia physical performance coach Ross Herridge.
We've got markers through this process- Ross Herridge
Lyon said he worked hard to fully recover from surgery so that he could participate in every match as Australia prepares for up to 21 Tests in a year beginning in August. Australia, apart from Bangladesh, plays South Africa away from home, then hosts New Zealand in the back end of the year and later travelling to India for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in January 2027.
Set on playing every Test match I'm available for - Nathan Lyon
"No one has a given right to be selected for Australia, so I know I need to make sure I'm performing, doing all the right things, but I'm, head and heart, set on playing every Test match I'm available for. I know how hungry I am … and I'm addicted to training."
"I'm addicted to trying to get better every day, so trying to get back to the fitness level (I was at prior to the injury) was never a concern for me."
