I thought that Paine captained with more confidence than he showed on the last day of the last Test. Perhaps he has learnt from the experience.
It's called experience

Liked his quick bowling changes and how he was happy to bowl a few part timers to change things up.
Mind you with only 81 balls left he was cutting it a bit fine, we have the better attack with more contributors and I think that was the difference.
England probably got unlucky losing Wood and Anderson who paired with Broad and Archer would have been a handful on these seaming tracks
but thats how the luck goes sometimes.
Root also didnt help his bowlers by being negative too often, fortune favours the brave and Paine for most of the time kept attacking fields and
reaped the rewards.

Agreed ... Smith may as well have been captain last night.

So, did Starc do enough to stay in the side for the next test?

When the game was there to be won, I thought he was pathetic.
He just doesn’t bend his back anywhere near enough.
Cummins comes on and makes things happen, Starc floats the ball down the track hoping they happen.

If they are over there I'd be running at least one of the back up bowlers now, Neser, Richardson or Behrendorff.
Maybe even give Lloyd Pope a run as the leg spinner.

Lyon isn't the same bowler after that horror ending in the third test.

Absolutely!
His batting in the first innings was crucial. His bowling in the Pom's first innings removed three of the most troublesome batsmen cheaply and was a critical factor in setting up our victory.
Starc provides a point of difference in our attack and he creates the rough for Lyon. He has to stay in the side!
