Australian captain Tim Paine says, "We made some strides forward in Perth, but this was disappointing. We're playing against some of the best bowlers. Cummins has been superb all series. It's been a difficult year, but the silver lining is that we'll have some world-class players available for selection in a few months. And we'll see the benefits of what happened this year over the next few."
