West Indies have a fresh injury concern, with quick Jayden Seales the latest bowler being monitored ahead of the second Test in Adelaide.
Just two days out from the second Test of the Frank Worrell Trophy, the Windies have three bowlers being assessed for injuries after the series opener in Perth.
Kemar Roach remains in the most-serious doubt, after hobbling from the field on day four in Western Australia with a hamstring strain.
He recovered to bat on the final day, but is still no certainty to play in Adelaide.
Kyle Mayers's shoulder is also causing concern, however the allrounder could still potentially play as a batter. He did not bowl after the opening day in Perth.
Seales has been battling knee pain after he was held back from bowling until late in Australia's second innings in the first Test.
"He's been having one or two niggles as well with his left knee," assistant coach Roddy Estwick said.
"He will be assessed as well, see where he is at, and see if he will get through the game.
"The pitches in Australia are a lot harder.
"We'd had a massive break between Test matches and, after this game, the pitch was so slow and good for batting, it took a lot out of the bodies."
The situation could bring a Test debut for Marquino Mindley, who only arrived in Adelaide on a flight from the Caribbean on Tuesday.
Phillip Anderson is the first-choice back-up bowler but, if depth is tested, then Mindley would be next in line.
Meanwhile, batter Nkrumah Bonner is continuing to be assessed after being ruled out of the opening Test with concussion after receiving a blow from a Cameron Green ball.
Estwick remains adamant that the spirit within the Windies' camp has not been broken by all the injuries and the team's 164-run defeat in Perth.
"You've still got to stay positive," he said.
"The Test team is a close unit led by Kraigg Brathwaite. He is a quiet operator but a strong operator, who leads by example.
"When you see your captain operating like he does, it lifts the morale in the team to go out and fight."
