IND vs SL 2nd Test: The fourth Day-Night Test match of India's cricket history will be played on Saturday, March 12, 2022, in Bengaluru. The Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA), in a statement said that 100% crowds would be allowed for the Bengaluru Test.

The decision has been taken amid the declining cases of Covid-19. 

"KSCA is happy to inform that there has been very good response for viewership of the India vs Sri Lanka Day-Night Test cricket match being played at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore from 12-16 March, 2022," KSCA treasurer Vinay Mruthyunjaya said in a statement.

"Considering the high number of volume of response and since there are no further restrictions for spectators, KSCA will be opening up sale of tickets for full capacity of the stadium," Mruthyunjaya added.

The first Test of the series was played at Mohali. It was Virat Kohli's 100th test match for India. Ravindra Jadeja was the star of the show in that match as he scored a brisk 175* and also picked up nine wickets in the entire match.

Nonetheless, India leads the series 1-0 and Rohit's men would be itching to go on the field and win the series. India's record in Day-Night Test matches has been mixed as the men in blue have won two and lost one of the three D/N matches played.
