After the end of the first day's play in the first Test against Bangladesh, R Ashwin had said that it was obviously a challenge to play with the pink ball. The ball had a lot more lacquer. He added that he had not even bowled a single ball with the pink ball and had just seen it. He also went on to say that sometimes he didn’t understand if it was orange or pink and was still coming to terms with it.

Rahane had also said that with pink SG expected to swing more than the traditional ‘SG Test’, the batsmen needed to play late and close to their body.

Meanwhile, Sourav Ganguly on Sunday said that five-day cricket needed rejuvenation to revive interest in the game’s traditional format. He is the chief architect in making this historic event see the light of the day.

The second Test begins on November 22. The day’s play would start at 1 pm and stretch till 8 pm in the evening. It will be India’s first day/night and pink-ball Test.
