BGT 2024-25: Indian Pacers Share Practice Experience With Pink-ball Ahead Of Adelaide Test
As Team India: As Team India gears up for the pink-ball Test against Australia in Adelaide, the visiting pacers shared their training experience with the ball which is relatively new to some of the squad members.
India started the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy with a bang after registering a 295-run dominating win in the first Test at Perth Stadium. With the early lead in the series, the focus now shifts to the pink-ball Test, to be played under lights, in Adelaide.
As compared to the usual red-ball used for Test cricket, the pink-ball supports more swing and stays new for a longer period - making it difficult for batters to take charge. Before the second Test against Australia, India will play a two-day pink-ball match against the Prime Minister's XI in Canberra to prepare for the challenge. The Day 1 play at Manuka Oval was delayed due to rain but the BCCI shared a video of India's practice session with pink-ball.
