On Wednesday, they were a different team: rugby-tackling the Australians, returning their aggression in kind, and flashing glimpses of the old flair.

Mohith HS’s heroic goalkeeping in the penalty shootouts, that India aced 3-1, where he made three sharp saves, ensured India ended the first half of the competition with a bonus point. Rourkela was about surrender. Belgium and Argentina exposed India’s frailties. But Down Under, against Spain and Australia, resilience resurfaced — and with it, a reminder that there is no need to panic. Not yet.

Discussions around phasing out senior players first took place in October 2024, barely …
