Nathan Lyon expects Mitchell Marsh to bowl with pink ball in Adelaide Test

Marsh's fitness has been a point of concern for Australia during the build-up to the second Test of the much anticipated clash against India. Uncapped all-rounder Beau Webster was added to the squad for the second Test as a potential cover for Marsh.

Marsh's essence to the Australian squad is reflected in his batting average of 40 since he returned to the side in last year's Ashes.

With his impact with the bat playing a major part in his selection, Lyon is expecting Marsh to have his say with the ball as Australia look to bounce back.

"I honestly think we'll see Mitch Marsh bowl. I'm not concerned about Bison's fitness if I'm being honest. He's been brilliant for us since he's come back in. He came back in that game in Leeds during the Ashes and has really dominated, so got full confidence in Bison. Happy to bowl his overs," Lyon said on Wednesday, as quoted from ESPNcricinfo.
