Pressing questions for Indian management

India and Australia have been competing for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy since 1996-1997 and the rivalry has grown to become one of the biggest in Test cricket.

The five-match series that Australia won drew record crowds at multiple venues and broke an 87-year-old attendance record at the Melbourne Cricket Ground last week.

But the crushing loss leave the men who matter in Indian cricket establishment with a lot on their minds when they deliberate on ways to get the house back in order. With six of the completed innings yielding less than 200 runs, one doesn't need a soothsayer to tell what went wrong on the tour.

Regular skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were plagued by technical issues throughout the season. The two legends, who have served Indian cricket for years, now find themselves at the crossroads with both veterans struggling to stem the rot that has set in their batting.

There are a few good youngsters in the fringes and the new World Test Championship cycle would demand that they be given a chance to develop over time.
