Pink ball debuts in India


Recommended Posts

Currently behaving nothing much different from a red ball. The evening session will be the one to watch. But it does have vigorous moment. Some deliveries bounced high and swung a lot. Especially the 2nd ball of the match. These batters couldn't even get bat to ball properly in first hour. Now they look little comfortable. But still scoring very very slowly.

Forgot to add great innovation. Duleep trophy will be the real test for pink ball. In this match Shami bowling and saha keeping will be the things to watch. How they deal with the pink ball will give good indication.

They must not make any changes to the pitches and then see if pink ball works. Don't think Indian team suits for pink ball cricket... initially will be good in terms of popularity but if India keeps loosing then no point. No one will watch.

That's the thing...I don't really know but I think it makes it swing more

The ball is holding quite well.Its pink and bright at about 40 overs.Commies are of the opinion that grass can be shaved off to see how the ball behaves.Right now it looks like a English wicket and english conditions

Very nice coverage by Star Sports.
