Hide AdHe has confirmed talks have already taken place with officials from the Socceroos.
Cummings netted for new side Shrewsbury on his debut in a 1-1 draw with AFC Wimbledon at the weekend.
The 24-year-old, who featured more than 160 times scoring nearly 80 goals for Hibs and Rangers, qualifies for Australia through his mother.
He told the Scottish Sun: "I’d love to get back with Scotland — but if I’m not going to get called up, I need to take my opportunity elsewhere.
“My mum is Australian and I’ve already had talks with their assistant manager, Rene Meulensteen.
“I have spoken to him a lot along with manager Graham Arnold. I can play for them because my two Scotland games were friendlies.
“But I was born in Scotland and obviously that would be my first choice. I’ll make a decision in the next month or so.”
