Australia and India's cricket teams have almost become frenemies, some two years after a bust-up in Bangalore fractured relations between players and even their respective boards.
It's almost two years to the date when India skipper Virat Kohli accused counterpart Steve Smith of systematically gaining an illegal advantage by looking to support staff for advice on reviews.
The unfounded allegation was sternly rejected by his counterpart, who labelled it "complete rubbish" and argued the one-off incident at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium was a brain fade.
Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland was even more forthright after an incredibly spiteful Test that featured abuse, send-offs and sledging from both teams, slamming Kohli's allegation as "outrageous" prior to crisis talks with Indian counterpart Rahul Johri.
The entire series was incredibly tense and laden with spats, ending with Kolhi declaring he will never be friends with the opposition.
The rivals have returned to M. Chinnaswamy Stadium for a Twenty20 and the mood could not be more different.
Australia's new-look approach, formed from the wreckage of last year's tour of South Africa, has been well documented but several pundits around the world have also noticed a change in Kohli's demeanour.
"Both sides have probably mellowed out a little bit, concentrate more on their skills and playing well," Pat Cummins said, having been parachuted in for the second half of the 2017 Test series.
"All the other stuff, where you lose so much energy (doing it), you work out over time it's a bit of a waste.
"He seems like he's really in control of his emotions and his game, Virat, when he leads the side now. I like to think we do the same.
"It was a pretty fiery series that one but I think you saw throughout the (recent) summer, that Test series was quite competitive but a lot respect shown from both sides."
Peter Handscomb, Smith's batting partner when the Decision Review System (DRS) scandal erupted in Bangalore, tersely noted he'd "moved on" when asked about the incident.
"I don't see any bad blood or anything between the two teams now," Handscomb said.
"With the IPL, we play with a lot of these players a lot, so we actually know them quite well and get along with them off the field."
