Cricket becomes one of the most popular games in the world in last decades. Day and night matches help to increase the amount of cricket fans as a part of game taking part at night which is a relatively free time.
Day and night test is the most recent experiment done by the ICC to increase the popularity of Test match Cricket. There were 10 Day/Night test matches played started on 27 Nov-1 Dec at Adelaide Oval cricket ground in Australia.
Australia became the first country which won a Day/Night test match by defeating New Zealand by 3 wickets in the same match. They have also played the highest number of Day/Night test matches (4 matches). Day/Night test match has never ended as a drawn match as all had results finally.
Rose ball is used for test cricket in Day/Night matches as it is the best combination of red ball which is used for day matches and the white ball which is used for limited over matches.
The next Day/Night test cricket match will be held on 24-28 Jan 2019 between Sri Lanka and Australia at the Gabba, Brisbane. Hope all cricket fans will enjoy it
Cheers
