After conquering Indore by an innings and 130 runs, Team India is set to take the field against Bangladesh in the historic pink-ball Test in Kolkata. Virat Kohli and his men would be rooting for the 12 consecutive series on the home soil, extending their lead on the ICC Test Championship points table.
None of the current Bangladesh crops has any pink ball experience either, adding to their teething problems in batting and bowling.
The enthusiasm in Kolkata is already on cloud 9 as the city of joy is hosting Indian cricket team’s first-ever pink-ball test. The first day will kickstart with Army paratroopers expected to fly into Eden to hand over a pink ball each to the two captains just before the toss, in front of top politicians, legendary sportspersons and a packed stadium.
The Eden Test will have an SG ball and it remains to be seen how it behaves. As far as the dew is concerned, a 1 pm start is believed to be the solution.
