India have recently registered a convincing win against Bangladesh in their first-ever day-night Test. Although they were asked before also for this when they toured to Australia in 2018, they denied it at that time. However, Australia captain Tim Paine said he would check if Virat Kohli is in a good mood and ask him about playing a Pink Ball Test in Australia also.

”We’ll ask Virat [Kohli] and see if we can get his permission to play here [Brisbane] and maybe even get a day-night Test if he is in a good mood. We’ll wait and see. We’ll certainly try but we’ll have to run that by Virat [Kohli],” Tim Paine said. ”We’ll get an answer from him at some stage I’m sure.”

Virat Kohli, who took only three seconds to agree about playing the Pink Ball Test when asked by the new BCCI President Sourav Ganguly, said that playing with the Pink ball was a challenge to them.

”Conditions were challenging with the pink ball under lights. It puts you in a situation to get your technique right and get into that Test match mode try to see off the situation and that’s the fun of Test matches when bowlers put you under pressure and you eventually come on top and score runs,” Kohli said after the game.

Earlier on the eve of the Eden Test, Kohli revealed that India were keen to begin playing Day/Night Tests with the pink ball in home conditions only.

“Obviously we wanted to get a feel of pink-ball cricket. Eventually, it had to happen,” Kohli said. “But, you can’t bring up those things before a big tour that you’re going to and suddenly in the schedule, there’s a pink-ball Test, when we haven’t even practiced with the pink ball – we haven’t played any first-class games with pink ball.”

“The thing was to experience the pink-ball Test in our own conditions first, so you get the hang of how the ball behaves, what is the way to sight the ball and so on. Then, eventually, going and playing with the pink ball anywhere in the world,” he concluded.
