IND vs AUS - Ashwin has always been a bit of a thorn for our side: Starc

"(I) can't say I've ever been scared of momentum don't really care about that. I think we can take a lot from this week," he told media after the end of the contest. "A couple of great partnerships, to be sent in on a (fresh) wicket and score 450 (445) and then managing to bowl India out for 250 (260) when the wicket, the conditions were probably a little bit better. We can take a lot from that," he said.
