Spinner
Nathan Lyon
Australia's most successful off-spinner of all-time will be the side's designated spinner for the Ashes. With his ability to tie down the runs from one end, he will be the ideal foil for Australia's pace trio as they seek to breathe fire upon England in the Ashes.
Trending
While the offie has always been amongst the wickets and been hugely successful in Australia as well, considering the quality of the current pace attack, his role might well be slightly different as compared to the last few series that he has taken part in. After enjoying plenty of turn and bounce in Bangladesh and India, Lyon might have to be content with being the fourth wheel in this Aussie bowling attack.
