MELBOURNE: India have little time for reflection following Monday's avoidable defeat. The manner of their collapse in the last session is unlikely to leave the team in a happy space going into the Sydney Test in three days' time. That fifth Test is now a must-win game if India are to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. For that to come to pass, some difficult decisions may need to be taken, starting with the captain.
Should Rohit Sharma give himself another opportunity or should he drop himself - like England's Mike Denness did in Sydney during the 1974-75 Ashes series - following a prolonged lean patch? Along the way, should KL Rahul's opening slot be restored?
