According to the shadow, this stadium in Motera will get light. During the day night match at dusk. Has a light in which to play is very challenging. ”

Indian captain Virat Kohli said before the match, “Pink ball swings much more than the red ball we have played. We experienced this when we played a match against Bangladesh in 2019. Against Pink Ball Playing is very challenging no matter what the pitch is, especially in the evening it is very difficult. As a batting team, if you are starting the innings in the light, the first one and a half hours are very challenging. “
