Specifically regarding the future of off-spinner Nathan Lyon, with the Fox League duo putting the tough questions to the likes of Pat Cummins, Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitch Marsh and Usman Khawaja.

So should the man donned ‘the GOAT’ retire according to his teammates?

“No,” according to Marsh, who also replied “yes” when asked if he finds it annoying his teammate has been given the aforementioned nickname.

“When people call Nathan Lyon the GOAT, does that really annoy you?” Fletcher then asked Hazlewood.

He replied: “No, because we are only talking about off-spin bowling, it’s a very niche subject”.

Cummins was also asked if his teammate should hang up the boots, and he replied “no” before Head slammed his fellow South Australian.

“Do you believe Nathan Lyon should be the designated singer after winning a Test match?” Fletcher asked.

“Yes, because he gets nervous as and has about 20 cans before he does it,” Head replied, before quickly answering “yes” when asked if Lyon is a “cat”.

“We already knew that, he’s a spin bowler,” Hindy added.

Fletch then asked if Cummins believes Lyon was our greatest ever off-spinner, to which he said: “Yes, here we go. Were you an offie or something in Cawsey Shield?”

That was in reference to Fletch’s own cricketing history, playing in Sydney’s under 12’s and under 16’s representative competitions.

It’s clearly a topic that’s been raised in the past, with Khawaja stating: “He’s going to bring up Cawsey shield again, every time I see him”.

“I played Cawsey Shield mate... under 12s, I dropped a catch against Southern Districts, it wasn’t my fault,” Fletcher said.

So Khawaja took his chance to hit back at his interviewers, asking “did you play Green Shield?”.

“Of course I did,” Fletcher replied.

“That’s bizarre. What year was that? 1964?” Khawaja said as he was zapped with a smile on his face.
