Mitchell Johnson will aim to straighten out the problems with both his head and his bowling action, after being dropped from the Australian Test team for the first time.
At a sombre press conference Johnson vowed to fight his way back into the team.
"It's not the end of the world", he said, sitting next to Australian coach Tim Nielsen, "I've come back from stress fractures when I was younger".
After not taking a wicket in Brisbane, Johnson said he was looking forward to getting away from the hype of the Ashes series and attempt to rebuild, whilst remaining on the fringes of the Australian squad as he is counseled by Nielsen and bowling coach Troy Cooley
After leading the bowling attack for the past two years, Johnson will watch as Peter Siddle and either Ben Hilfenhaus, Doug Bollinger or Ryan Harris start in Adelaide.
The second test begins tomorrow, with the series tied at 0-0.
