Australia captain Pat Cummins said it was a "privilege" to have a bowler of Mitchell Starc's calibre at his disposal and felt Travis Head's blistering hundred set up their series-levelling victory against India in the day-night second test on Sunday.
Mitchell Starc, one of the architects of Australia's comeback win in Adelaide, said the hosts had left the Perth debacle behind by shutting the "outside noise" following their heavy defeat in the series-opener. A 295-run embarrassing defeat despite bowling India out for just 150 in the first innings invited criticism for the hosts from all quarters. Living up to his reputation with the pink ball, left-arm quick Starc handed Australia a dream start by dismissing Perth centurion Yashasvi Jaiswal in the very first ball of the second Test en route to finishing with an impressive match haul of 8/108.

Australia pacer Mitchell Starc was at his absolute best during India's first innings in the ongoing second Test in Adelaide. Starc registered his career-best figures of 6/48 as Australia bowled India out for 180 after the visitors had opted to bat. According to former Australia batter Mark Waugh, Starc bowled the "ball of the century" when he dismissed Ravichandran Ashwin. The India veteran played a handy cameo before Starc trapped him plumb in front of the stumps with a sharp in-swinging delivery in the 39th over.

The Indian batters struggled to find answers as the Australia quicks sizzled with the pink ball under the lights. The hosts had dismissed half the Indian team by the 21st over.
