Australia will field an unchanged XI against Windies in their second game of the ongoing World Cup to be played at Trent Bridge on Thursday with head coach Justin Langer suggesting they will resist the temptation of playing another spinner in the form of Nathon Lyon.

Lyon had great numbers against left-handers in Test cricket. He averages 24 against lefties, while his economy rate in ODIs is significantly lower against lefties than to righties .

“There is because there are the left handers. That said, we probably won’t bowl two spinners here against the West Indies,” Langer said.

“I think we’re going with the same team,” cricket.com.au quoted Langer as saying. “We haven’t had a look at the wicket yet, but my gut feeling is… the same XI.”

The Australia head coach admitted they were tempted to recall Lyon in Nottingham given the number of left-handers in West Indies top order.

“Every game there are thoughts about playing Nathan Lyon, but Adam Zampa is doing a really good job for us. Adam Zampa is a very good spinner. Glenn Maxwell is bowling well, so hopefully, we have some balance there.

“At some of the other grounds we might look to play two spinners where the matchups for the off-spinner will be more appropriate, but probably not here,” he added.
