Former Australia spinner Shane Warne feels that the pink ball ought to be utilized in all Test matches and never simply day-night Tests, citing that the crimson ball “doesn’t do anything” and goes comfortable after 25 overs. “I’ve been saying this for the last few years. I believe the pink ball should be used in all Test matches. Day games, not just day-night games,” he stated on Fox Cricket’s The Big Break. “I think the pink ball you can actually see the ball easier, crowd can see the ball easier. It generally does more than the red ball and it looks fantastic on television. So why not use a pink ball the whole time? Maybe change it at 60 overs because it goes soft, but I’d be using the pink ball for every Test match so more of it I would say,” he added.
His remarks got here as India and Australia are combating it out in the pink-ball Test on the Adelaide Oval.
Further highlighting the shortcomings of the crimson ball, Warne stated: “No more red ball, it doesn’t swing, it doesn’t do anything, goes soft after 25 overs.
“It has been pathetic for thus lengthy now. Except for the Dukes ball in England, it has been garbage.
“The pink ball can’t be any worse than what the red ball has been for Test cricket. We haven’t seen swing, we haven’t seen seam. Absolutely nothing.
“So let’s strive the pink ball in Test cricket.”
