Not sure if anyone's been watching but the Aussies are sending us a message at the moment - this pace attack is looking rather tasty all of a sudden with Pattinson and Cummins.We need a convincing win in this series to put them back in their box.

Cummins is missing the Aussie season due to a heel injury. They are fine prospects but seem a little young to be suffering typical fast bowler stress/wear and tear injuries. Maybe they're being over bowled?
Test cricket is NOT dying, it could be on the cusp of a golden era.

Aussies won't watch when they're losing.
