trial pink balls in Futures

Day-night Test cricket could be a step closer after Cricket Australia confirmed they would trial a pink ball under lights during next week's Futures League match at Adelaide Oval. The test-run is intended to determine how the pink ball holds up in the longer format of the game and how visible it is when used at night.

The three-day game between South Australia and Western Australia's second XIs will be played from 2.30pm until 9.30pm, starting next Tuesday, February 2. At the same time, a Futures League match in Brisbane will use a pink ball while a game in Melbourne will feature a white ball, with both those games to be play during the day only.

If the pink ball does not discolour too much, maintains the characteristics of a red ball throughout an innings and is visible to players and spectators under lights, it could bring day-night Tests much closer. The ICC and Cricket Australia are keen to play Test cricket under lights in an effort to increase the viewing audience and they are hopeful the first games could be played within two years.

"Cricket Australia is committed to finding a way to make day-night Test cricket a reality and the Adelaide Oval trial is one of many steps that need to be taken before this vision is realised," James Sutherland, the CEO of Cricket Australia, said. "The results of the trial won't provide all the answers or a definitive outcome, but it will give us important information and feedback on the delivery of the project."

Next week's games will be followed by further trials to assess how the coloured balls show up on television. The four-day domestic first-class competition in the West Indies this month has already featured day-night games with pink balls as the push for day-night Tests gains momentum

Toss really matters for India and In this Idea cup MS dhoni was not lucky as ever he used to win the toss and this time,Kumar Sangakkara was doing the right thing in the finals,b/w India and SL Idea cup,India was put on to bat after SL won the toss and right from the beginning Indian batsmen were struggling to get runs and the Sri lankan bowlers were not making any mistake,not giving any kind of loose balls,it was only sehwag who was as usual playing a blitzkrieg and he too got out in a cheap fashion and Including the Indian captain was not taking up the responsibility to stay at the middle till the end and India was almost 5 down for 60 and just 12 overs on the broad it was Suresh Raina and Ravindra Jadeja who anchored India to a respectful total of 245 and they both had a brilliant 106 run partnership and Raina continued till he got a century and tried to stay till the last ball,but he coudt't,but he was bating superbly made 106 that was more than enough for India to come out from the struggle and It was up to the bowlers to contain the decent target,but as usual the dew factor coming into the play and once again Indian bowlers has been hammered right from the beginning and though Indians tried to get the first wicket in the first over Dilshan and Sangakkara once again played well to take off the pressure on them and at last it was Mahela finishing off the things in style...
