Johnson squashes comeback talk
After Nathan Lyon had said that Mitchell Johnson might consider making a comeback to Australian colours, the former bowler has reacted to it and quashed all talks of coming back to the game.
"Look, I don't think so. I don't think that will ever happen.
"I feel like there's a bit more of that fun playing the Big Bash. "When you go to that next level, there's definitely something different. You really have to step up."I'm probably not up to that standard. There's other guys there that are playing much better - AJ Tye for instance. He's playing much-better cricket than I am," Johnson said.
He further added he felt a lot more relaxed while playing the Big Bash and is happy doing so at the moment.
"The ears prick up a little bit. But I'm happy playing this sort of format (domestically). It's a lot more relaxed," he said.
