Australia has seen new pace bowlers in it's lineup since past two years, of them Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins are a very good prospect. John Hastings is also one of a bright prospect for Australia's attack.
Josh Hazlewood is already contributing to Aussie side. Read the latest about Cummins by legends of Australian Cricket, I think it is a very valuable advice for young paceman.
Pat Cummins according to me has lot of potential. Every bowler has his own style of run up and action.
I think I would suggest Cummins to take a look at Mitchell Johnson run up and delivery.
Though there is a stark contrast in the delivery of both the bowlers, but I feel Cummins could benefit from the action of former Australian champion paceman who English in the Ashes in the recet past just before retiring from the game.
Has gone through reports where Cummins fitness is under scanner following medical intervention due to sports injuries for back. I would suggest Cummins to take it easy rather than trying hard.
One thing I think could help Cummins is slightly tweaking his bowling action. And I would like the paceman have a close look at Mitch's action and try a little bit of side on action.
I think Mitch's action is a very good one for a paceman, very efficient, resilient and packs power to knock off opposition.
There is nothing like Test Cricket, I think Cummins should have a very easy run up without stressing the back, delivery of the ball should be worked on, considering his back problems.
With further help and advice of legends and health experts, I think he should be Test Cricket in near future.
All the best to him career and hope he gives best for many years to come for Australia,

If India could repeat the performance at Adelaide, then no doubt it can surely win the series.
If India could repeat the performance at Adelaide, then no doubt it can surely win.
The factors that led to the Indian win were good solid knocks from top order Indian batsmen, particularly Virat Kohli, and good bowling by the team.
Though it will be too tough to say that India performed exceptionally well, there were many new faces in the Australia line up like Richardson, Boyce, Lynn and Head. India too tried new players like Bumrah and Hardik.
So it was like a league game so to speak both the teams trying to unravel the new talent for T20 World Cup in March.
So will there be further new changes in the team line up for the next two T20?
It depends on the overall team strategy of the respective teams. Most probably I think the team managements would go with giving more exposure to young talent.

India plays Australia in the first T20 at Adelaide tomorrow.
India plays Australia in the first T20 international ahead of the upcoming World Cup T20 in march in India.
Team managements of both the teams are looking to give new comers the chance to see how they fare, based on the performances, they could be selected for the World Cup in India.
Adelaide pitch seems to be evenly balanced whether you bat first or second. So the team winning the Toss can opt according to their strengths like batting or bowling first and take that early advantage from the opposition.

India wins the final ODI at SCG, Manish Pandey leads the team for the first victory.
Another huge total looks a big possibility the way Australia is batting presently on the back of Dave Warner's 5th ODI century at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
India won the toss and chose to field, Ajinkya Rahane was replaced by Manish Pandey, Jasprit Bumrah makes his debut for India.
Australia lost some quick wickets early in the innings but Warner's contribution kept the run rate ticking for Australia. Australia are 225/4 after 37 Overs Mitchell Marsh is not out on 50.
Dave Warner is out for 122 Australia 235/5.
Debutant Jaspreet Bumrah has so far bowled a tight spell, giving away only 28 runs in 8 Overs so far.
Mathew Wade is the new man in for Australia. James Faulkner follows after.
Runs continue for Australia 302/5 Mitchel Marsh continues with free scoring with the bat. He is 88 of 70.
Australia set India 331 to chase in the final ODI of the VB series on the back of Warner and M Marsh centuries.
India finally won the match after some solid overall performance from the India batsmen. After Rohit Sharma's 99, it was left for the lower middle order to perform.
There was this opportunity for Manish Pandey and he grabbed with both the hands, scoring at a brisk pace, notching a ton, and giving India a much needed victory on the tough tour.
India reached the target in 49.4 Overs with Manish Pandey scoring 104 of just 81 balls that included 8 fours and a six.

IndvsAus2016: India did better, but Australia played exceptionally well to win the VB series 2016.
India has lost the series to an in form Australian side despite good showing with the bat.
As always Indian bowling remains a concern on every Australian tour. But this time around the team should have prepared itself for any eventuality like the injury to paceman Shami.
But I don't think any drastic changes are required for the team.
Also Australia's bowling is also good I should say, keeping in check any letting off of Indian batsmen to score freely.
In a way the inexperienced Aussie attack of Hastings, Paris, Richardson, Boland, Hazlewood and Faulkner managed to restrict Indian scores at around 300 run mark, thus making it easier for Australia batsmen to chase down the total with comfort.
Had India added those crucial 20-25 odd runs more, then surely Australia batsmen would have come under serious pressure.
Overall I think India played well, and lost out only in some quarters, like Skipper Dhoni lost out on one or two occasions to capitalise the solid platform India top order provided.
I think India should continue to play as it was, but I think it will be interesting to see the motivation of the players after losing the series after putting up such good huge totals on the board for the team.
Rohit Sharma did exceptionally well, scoring back to back centuries. Virat Kohli played gem of a knock when India needed it the most at MCG. Rahane was always there with the bat keeping the rate up for the team.
It is only on a day all the bowling, batting and fielding clicks for India, that India could win against a thoroughly professional side like Australia.
Talent wise India I think India is far superior than Australia, but to win the game you should need to perform as a team.
