Pat Cummins said- Head changed the course of the game
It’s been a wonderful week. We weren’t the team we wanted to be in Perth, but it was a good performance here. It felt good to take some wickets also. Stark is amazing. He has been doing it for more than a decade. I feel very fortunate and honored. Head loves to bat. When Head came to bat, the match could have gone either way, but he changed the course of the game.

Rohit Sharma said- We are waiting for Gaba test
It has been a disappointing week for us, we did not play well and Australia played better than us. We could not capitalize on our chances. What he did in Perth was special. We wanted to repeat that, but every Test match has its own challenges. We are waiting for the GABA test. Have some great memories there. We want to start well and do well.

Travis Head said- was in rhythm since last week
It felt good to score runs once again. Last week I was in rhythm. It seemed like I was in form. The atmosphere of the dressing room is also great. I thought we had a good chance against the second new ball. It is good that this strategy was successful.

Starc said – no change in approach
It was a very positive victory. There was a lot of discussion outside after the first match, but we left Perth in Perth. I can’t explain it properly. There has been no change in my approach. I probably keep the length a little fuller. The pink ball is like the white ball, not like the red ball. We played positively with both bat and ball and got results. It feels good when the ball hits the stumps.
