Or can India ignore Travis Head? And can the fans not want to see the two of them really go at each other? Seriously, who are they kidding!
Australia make their move, will India also follow suit?
Three Tests down, two to go. And that is the score that the team management from both sides will be key to tracking. The workload has already claimed Josh Hazlewood, and the lack of it has led to Ravichandran Ashwin's shock retirement.
