"Cummins was outstanding, he looked like if there needed a bit of a grease and oil change after Perth and a tune-up, he was purring by the end of it, so that was terrific to watch," Adam Gilchrist was quoted by Fox Cricket as saying.

Later, Adam Gilchrist also stated that Pat Cummins looked more aggressive in his celebration after picking every wicket.

"You could see just through his celebrations that... every wicket that he took he was more aggressive in his celebration. Not in that lose control extent but you could just see that clearly they'd been stung by a bit of criticism around after their performance (in Perth) and they internally would have been so disappointed with the way they played in Perth," he added.

"So it (Adelaide celebrations ) showed you what it meant to them and they knew that they were back at the level they want to play their cricket," he further added.

The third Test match between India and Australia will be played in Brisbane. The match will come into action on December 14.
