Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland believes there will be more day-night Tests in the future
Cricket Australia (CA) is willing to champion the cause of four-day Test matches while forecasting two day-night Tests on future domestic calendars.
CA's chief executive James Sutherland said, “Early feedback from the inaugural day-night Test between Australia and New Zealand in Adelaide is glowing.
"All future Adelaide Test matches could be day-nighters and Brisbane is also a good option for the concept."
CA has held discussions with Pakistan hierarchy, who tour Australia next summer, about playing the next day-night Test.
"We are really keen on, I guess, continuing this," Sutherland told ABC radio on Saturday.
"Right place, right time, right conditions of course. But it's certainly something we would like to see in the future."
Australia will play three Tests each against Pakistan and South Africa next summer.
Warne wants pink ball to be made permanent
Australian spin great Shane Warne has backed the idea of using pink ball and suggested that the red ball should be permanently replaced with the new ball, even though the experiment is only one day old.
Considering the use of pink ball as 'huge success', the 46-year-old said, "The ball stood up extremely well as it was easily seen by both commentators."
New Zealand all-rounder Mitchell Santner also hailed the concept, revealing that everyone was quite happy with the way it went.
Echoing similar view, swing specialist Trent Boult said that the ball stands out like a sore thumb.
