Cummins had registered figures of 6-91 in the 1st innings of the Headingley Test.

While Australie lead the 5-match Ashes series 2-1, they might be wondering where they went wrong, resulting in the loss at Headingley by 3 wickets.

Both England and Australia now have a break of eight days before their 4th Test starts at Old Trafford on July 19.

Speaking about the potential team combination for the upcoming Test, Australia captain Pat Cummins said that he will be keeping all options open and try to find the best combination that will seal them the series.

"You keep all options open, we have got 9 or 10 days now, so we'll take a deep breath. We'll go away for a few days," Cummins was quoted as saying by ICC.

"But everyone comes back into it. Greeny should be fit for Manchester. Josh Hazlewood will be back in there as well. So we should have a full roster an we'll have a look at the wicket and work out the best XI."

All-rounder Mitchell Marsh, who scored a hundred in the first innings of the Headingley Test, might end up finding a place. Cummins, however, did not confirm either possiblity, but acknowledged that it will be difficult to keep Marsh out of the team.

"Yeah, it's possible, but, I mean, it was a pretty impressive week, wasn't it?" Cummins said of Marsh.

Cummins also spoke about spinner Todd Murphy, who replaced the injured Nathan Lyon during the 3rd Test. "We would have liked to have got Todd into the game a bit more and I am sure next week in Manchester there will be a bit more spin for him."

Australia had found themselves ahead of England on multiple occasions at Headingley, but Chris Woakes and Harry Brook ensured that the Ashes remained alive with splendid displays with the bat on Sunday.
