Australia spinner Nathan Lyon has spoken after it was revealed his contract to join Hampshire for the domestic season had been cancelled due to the coronavirus.

The 32-year-old said it was "not meant to be" for him to play in England in 2020.

"Obviously we’re in a little bit different circumstances to what we’re used to so it was a pretty easy decision from both the club and myself here that probably the time’s not right to head over there,” he said.

“It’s pretty disappointing that we’re unable to head over to Hampshire and be a part of that amazing club over there and play a lot of county cricket and hopefully help them on the way to a championship."

Lyon added that he hopes to return to Hampshire in the future.
