Spinner Nathan Lyon will now only be available for seven of Lancashire's County Championship games.
Lancashire will no longer have spinner Nathan Lyon available for the full County Championship season, as Cricket Australia seek to limit his workload.
Lyon, who has taken 530 Test wickets, will now be free for seven of the first nine rounds of the Championship. Lancashire's director of cricket performance Mark Chilton said discussions with potential signings were "taking place", and maintained the county is "excited" to retain Lyon for part of the campaign.
