Australia spinner Nathan Lyon said he didn’t value BazBall style in Test cricket and was doubtful about its existence in the first two Ashes matches. 

Lyon could play only the first two matches before a calf injury ended his time in the Ashes, which ended in a 2-2 draw. 

“I know everyone keeps talking about BazBall, to be honest, I didn’t really see BazBall… throughout my two Tests against them,” Lyon told SEN’s The Run Home.

“I think there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors with BazBall, if I’m being honest with you, and I feel like if you’re going to play an aggressive brand of cricket anyway, it’s about being able to go up and down in gears and understanding the moments in the game” he said.

The 35-year-old also declared that he will play in the 2027 Ashes which will return to England. 

“I tell you one thing, I’m definitely not joking about going back to (the) Ashes. I feel like having this injury, coming home and watching the guys play the three Test matches has really driven me to get back there and make sure I’m back playing cricket.”

“I’m definitely not writing off going back to England for the Ashes… the finish line for me hasn’t even popped up in my eyesight yet, I’ve still got a lot of cricket left in me in my eyes and a lot to offer the Renegades, New South Wales cricket but also Australia,” he elaborated.
