Nathan Lyon believes that this ICC World Test Championship-holding Australian team has a long way to go before being considered one of the greats. The spinner also spoke about his spin-bowling partners, Matthew Kuhnemann and Todd Murphy, and what it is like to bowl as a trio of spinners in a team that traditionally relies on pace bowlers

Australia's premier spinner Nathan Lyon feels that despite their side's success in the previous years, there are still some milestones left to be reached after which they can be considered a truly great team.
Ahead of the second Test match against Sri Lanka, Nathan Lyon stated that the current team is still a long way from achieving greatness as a Test team. Despite reclaiming the Border-Gavaskar Trophy title against India in the summer and registering the biggest-ever win in the subcontinent with an innings and 242-run over Sri Lanka, Lyon still believes that the team is far from being considered the great side.
