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.
