With seamer John Hastings in the Australia squad for the ICC Champions Trophy in June, Worcestershire have secured the services of Aussie Test spinner Nathan Lyon as a replacement for the duration of the tournament. A great signing for a few weeks in early summer when a world-class spinner could prove a real boon. Fully expect Lyon to play the Championship matches against Sussex and Glamorgan, and perhaps the ones against Northants and Kent on either side of the Champions Trophy too, depending on the arrangements of the Australia squad.
