Before the start of the India-Australia series, the mood in the camps were astonishingly different to what it is today.

Just two weeks back the Australians were wary of the fact that there's every possibility of getting hunted by the Indian spinners. Also the former players strictly advised Smith's men to not sledge Indian skipper Virat Kohli. And how tables have turned in a matter of days with a certain Steve O'Keefe inflicting misery on the star studded Indian batting line-up.

The Kangaroos have found their voice and retired Australian pacer Mitchell Johnson's latest tweet is a testimony to that fact. Johnson, who in the past had taken potshots at the Indian team and their captain, didn't hold back after his country's historic victory and targeted India coach Anil Kumble this time.

"And the coach of India says Steve O'Keefe is "Steady" Well done Steady O'Keefe keep it up #INDvAUS," tweeted Johnson taking a dig at Kumble who had termed O'Keefe's performance in first innings as 'steady'.

When asked about O'Keefe's spell after the end of Day 2, Kumble said, "He bowled steady. He bowled consistently in good areas. There were a couple of soft dismissals and that pushed us back. We saw Jadeja in the last session where every over he was beating the bat three times. It was just one of those days where on another day, they would have all taken the edge or got a wicket. It was one of those things where O'Keefe pitched it."

The Aussies deserve full credit for beating India by 333 runs inside three days, but who knows the mood in the respective camps may just change after the Benguluru Test which starts from March 4.
