Nathan Lyon will pose a threat to the India team
Australian spinner Nathan Lyon chose 8 wickets the last time the hosts met India in a test in Adelaide. This will certainly make him someone to be reckoned with, as the game is important in the context of the four-game series.
The last time Australia faced India in a test in Adelaide, Nathan Lyon claimed land in the match.
