The flat wickets in Melbourne and Sydney during the four-Test series between India and Australia had come under criticism with many saying that the visitors got all the advantage.
"It comes down to the conditions and what line up they go with, whether they want to play a spinner or not. But we are not worried. Everyone seems to be in form. It's a good healthy environment for Australian cricket," Faulkner said on the eve of India-Australia tri-series encounter
"It looked like a very good Test series. The Indian batsmen are in pretty good touch as well, particularly Virat Kohli. They're going to be tough tomorrow. They're a very good one-day team and so are we," he pointed out.
Australia got off to a good start in the tri-series with a three-wicket win over England yesterday, thanks to David Warner's third ODI hundred.
The all-rounder said it would be up to India to sort out a plan to stop Warner when the two sides meet here tomorrow.
"It was the first time we were back together as a group and what a way to start. The way Mitchell Starc set the tone in the first over of the game was outstanding and then after that it rolled on. It was a good run chase in the end led by Warner," he added about the victory in Sydney.
Starc struck two quick blows to leave England's top-order in tatters after which Australia chased down the target of 235, riding on Warner's knock of 127.
