Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper, says it's amazing that the crowd numbers are getting better.

Ishant Sharma is adjudged the Man of the Match and Series!

The number one Test team has extended their winning run in Tests to 7 (their best ever) and they are looking like an unstoppable unit.

India played its first Day-Night Test on 22nd November 2019 at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

The second Test against Bangladesh in Kolkata will be a day-night affair and with a pink ball rather than red for better visibility.

This is both India and Bangladesh's first Day-Night Test.

Day-night Tests, aimed at increasing crowds and TV audiences for the five-day games, were sucessfully introduced in 2010.

On 30th October, 2012, the ICC cleared test cricket to be played under lights.

First D/N Test was played from 27th Nov to 1st Dec 2015 between Australia and New Zealand at Adeliade Oval with Australia winning by 3 wickets.

This is also the first Pink Ball Test for India.

Pink ball is chosen as it helps in more visibility in D/N Test cricket.

India will play its first pink-ball, day-night Test match against Bangladesh at Eden Gardens on Friday (November 22).

India will become the last major cricketing nation to enter the pink ball Test era.
