As hosts India step up preparations for their first ever pink ball Test slated to be played against Bangladesh at the iconic Eden Gardens at Kolkata, the players are trying out different tricks to ensure that they adapt quickly to the new conditions that come with the challenge of playing with pink ball. An example of that came to light when ace off-spinnera Ravichandran Ashwin was spotted replicating former Sri Lankan captain Sanath Jayasuriya's bowling action during nets session under lights on Sunday. Ashwin maybe a right arm bowler as opposed to Jayasuriya but the latter's unique bowling action was something that Ashwin was trying out to the amusement of those around him including bowling coach Bharat Arun, and even himself. He even dropped the ball in the middle of the run up and burst into laughter.

Having a 1-0 lead in the two-Test series, the Indian camp will go into the Eden Gardens contest high on confidence as they won the first Test in under three days. Even the challenge of facing the pink ball for the first time ever doesn't seem like something that can stop them from continuing their winning streak at home. This means that the players are also having some fun in training at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The day-night match between India and Bangladesh will be played at the Eden Gardens from November 22 to 26.
