The Prime Minister's XI (PM XI) is an invitational cricket team picked by the Prime Minister of Australia for an annual match held at the Manuka Oval in Canberra against an overseas touring team.
Lyon said Australia was bracing for a brave fightback from the tourists, who were hammered by 10 wickets in the Ashes opener in Brisbane.
Hazlewood is currently listed at number six on the ICC Test bowler rankings, headed by England's spearhead James Anderson but Lyon believes the seamer's repertoire and control make him the most potent bowler in Australia's three-pronged pace attack.
It was the first time in test cricket that one bowler (Nathan Lyon) had dismissed the top four batsmen by LBW's.
Australia's leading spinner Nathan Lyon today said the "pressure is right on India" in the ongoing four-match Test series and patted his team for its fighting display in the last two games.
