The pitch of Motera Stadium Narendra Modi, built at a cost of around 800 crores, is behaving differently with the pink ball. In the previous Pink Ball Test matches, the fast bowlers had dominance, but on this ground, the spinners got dominated on the first day of the Pink Ball Test being played between India and England.
Before the day-night Test match started at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium, 15 Day-Night Test matches were played so far, in which the fast bowlers took 354 wickets, while the spinners took only 115 wickets.
But on Wednesday, on the first day of the third Test of the four-match Test series, Indian fast bowlers bowled just 11 overs and got only one wicket while the spinners took nine wickets.
Left-arm spinner Akshar Patel (6/38) and off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin (3/26) combined to take nine wickets on the first day, which saw England struggling in the first innings.

The Adelaide Oval ground has hosted the most day-night Test match so far and when Adelaide Oval pitch curator Damien Hruse was asked about Motera’s wicket, he told news agency IANS that he would say anything Would like to avoid He respected other curators and said that for this, different pitches, positions should be observed.
England’s team looked so helpless in front of Indian spinners that they lost the next eight wickets within 38 runs.
Indian captain Virat Kohli said on Tuesday before the match about the wicket of Motera Stadium that despite being friendly to the spinners, having a pink ball will help the fast bowlers with this wicket.
The pitch for the pink ball test normally has some amount of grass cover to ensure that the ball does not lose luster quickly. But before this match, the grass was removed from the wicket.
The four-match series between the two teams is still 1-1. India needs to win at least two Tests to qualify for the World Test Championship (WTC).
