<p>Lyon had ripped tissue off the fascia in his left hip and despite that, he continued to play the Test matches with immense pain. &ldquo;The plan was to play the Shield final if NSW were lucky enough to get in there. I&rsquo;ve been doing a fair amount of rehab, five days a week. [It was] pretty painful when you land on it, but also when you run, it fills up with fluid and all that stuff. But all well and good now. So touch wood, it&rsquo;s all good,&rdquo; said Lyon to reporters in Sydney, on the sidelines of Cricket Australia announcing 2025-26 home summer schedule.</p>
<p>Lyon also said Australia is wary of <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/india-to-host-west-indies-south-africa-in-oct-nov-23504817" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><strong>South Africa</strong></a>&rsquo;s bowling attack. &ldquo;South Africa are going to be a big challenge. It&rsquo;s two of the best bowling attacks in the world going against each other and it&rsquo;s is going to be a big challenge for the batters in both teams.&rdquo;</p>
