Ganguly made it clear – Team India will play pink ball test in Australia

India played their first Day Night Test against Bangladesh in November last year at the Eden Gardens and registered an easy win in this match.

India will play the Day Night Test during this year’s Australia tour. BCCI President Sourav Ganguly gave this information on Sunday. Indian captain Virat Kohli said some time ago that his team is ready to play the Day Night Test during the tour of Australia.

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly said, ‘Yes, India will play the Day Night Test in Australia. It will be formally announced soon.

Former Indian captain Ganguly also said that the next Test series against England will be the second Test Day Knight. He also said that the board will try to organize one day night test in every series in future.

India played their first Day Night Test against Bangladesh in November last year at the Eden Gardens and registered an easy win in this match. The venue of the Day Night Test on the Australia Round is not yet decided, but Perth or Adelaide are likely to host the pink ball match.

Before the three-match ODI series against Australia on home soil last month, Kohli said, “We are ready for the challenge – whether it is Gabba or Perth … it doesn’t matter to us.” It has become a very exciting part of any Test series and we are ready to play the Day Night Test.

India had rejected Australia’s request to play the Day Night Test in Adelaide in 2018-19 and cited a lack of experience thereafter. Meanwhile, it is learned that India will play a series of three ODIs and three T20 Internationals in Sri Lanka after the IPL.
