If you have changed directly from one number to another, then this may be the reason why the number you want to use now takes some time to register. Start by unsubscribing your Australian phone number from iMessage.
(This isn't necessarily all-important, since you won't be using that number for iMessage anyway, but still a good thing, so you're sure your Australian number isn't floating around in your Apple ID.)
You can do this online here:
Deregister and Turn Off iMessage - Apple Support
Then disable iMessages on your iPhone. Go to:
Settings -> Messages then Disable iMessages. Turn off your iPhone, turn it back on.
Go back and enable iMessages and give it some time to register your new phone number.
