Yes Ashwin has been helped with pitches to help his cause in India but not all have been rank turners.

Lyon& #39;s record considering pitches he has played in is appreciable but to call him the greater finger spinner at the moment has no real substance.

What makes people say Lyon is the greater spinner among these 2?
Considering these stats I would say they are baffling.

Is there something very obvious to say Lyon is the greater spinner? IMO a big no
