New Delhi, Feb 16:
India will play a day-night Test during their much-anticipated tour of Australia later this year, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said here.
This comes a month after captain Virat Kohli asserted that his team was ready to play a day-night Test anywhere in Australia.
“Yes, India will play a Day/Night Test in Australia. A formal announcement will be made soon,” BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said.
Ganguly, a former captain, also said that the second Test of the next home series against England will be a day-night affair. He added that the Board will try to have at least one day-night Test in each series moving forward.
India played their maiden day-night Test against Bangladesh last November at the Eden Gardens, winning the match quite comfortably with plenty of time to spare.(PTI)
