The Indian camp have lots of issues to sort out ahead of the third Test in Brisbane. Rohit Sharma's form and his batting position, bowling order as well as spin trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin and Washington Sundar - are some of the many doubts that Gautam Gambhir and co have been left to sort ahead of Brisbane.
As for Australia, there's no injury worry inside the camp as they look to go 2-1 ahead in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. Speaking in the post-match interview, Cummins said he wasn't happy as to how he bowled at Perth.
"I was happy, wasn't too upset with how I bowled in Perth, felt really good this week and good to get a few wickets. Amazing, never that much noise within the group, we know what a good unit we are. Having someone like Starc, he's amazing, just does it time and time again. He's done it for over a decade now. Feel very lucky and privileged to have him in our team," Cummins said.
