Nathan Lyon Credits Ashwin As A Key Learning Rival

Veteran Australian spinner Nathan Lyon has stated that rival players often make the best coaches, crediting Indian counterpart Ravichandran Ashwin for teaching him a great deal through their encounters since 2011-12. Both spinners made their Test debuts in the same year and will meet for the eighth time in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy five-Test series, starting November 22 in Perth.
