'Lyon more advanced than Swann' - chairman - 10-19-2013 Australia spinner Nathan Lyon is comparatively a better bowler than England's Graeme Swann, saying Cricket Australia spin coach John Davison, comparing the players' careers at the age of 25. Davison, who has known Lyon since the spinner was 15, and coaches him at the Centre of Excellence in Brisbane, feels Lyon's Test record of 25 games and 85 wickets at the age of 25 is superior to 34-year-old Swann, who made his Test debut at 29. Re: 'Lyon more advanced than Swann' - Kyle - 10-19-2013 Are you on crack Dave bro? Lyon has barely done something to justify his place in the test squad, let alone being 'advanced' than Swanneh. He might, of course, improve drastically or something, but that's only hypothetical. As for now, no. Just no. Re: 'Lyon more advanced than Swann' - Mail - 10-20-2013 Davison clearly had a rough night but it is the usual hype leading up to an Ashes series......
