Shane Warne pushing to include Mitchell SwepsonAustralia selectors may opt to include two spinnersNathan Lyon has delivered a stinging response to Shane Warne’s suggestion he could be rested from the
Sydney Test to allow fellow spinner Mitchell Swepson to debut. “Did Warney ever want a rest and give Stuart MacGill a go? I won’t be rested,” said Lyon.

Swepson is a small chance to play in this week’s third Test against
New Zealand, particularly if the SCG wicket is expected to turn. The Queenslander’s most likely path to a baggy green would be if selectors opted to play two spinners, as they did most recently in Sydney in 2017.
