Photo GettyAustralia's cricketers want to end the test careers of some Englishmen while winning the Ashes, spinner Nathan Lyon says. "There's a lot of scars for the English guys, especially coming over here, especially when we have two guys bowling 150kmh and not just one now." Lyon accused some England batsmen of being frightened when facing pace ace Mitchell Johnson during Australia's 5-0 home series whitewash in 2013-14. The 2013-14 series in Australia hastened the end of the test careers of Englishmen including Jonathan Trott, Graeme Swan and Kevin Pietersen. "If that was the case and I was scared, why didn't I go home?," Prior has told English media.
