Day-Night Test: Virat Kohli reveals Sachin Tendulkar's input behind maiden pink ball century

India TV News  

Sachin Tendulkar told Virat Kohli to treat the much-talked-about twilight period in pink ball Tests as the challenging morning session of a traditional red ball five-day match, the India captain said after they beat Bangladesh inside three days and swept the series 2-0. Probably with the pink ball, you have to treat the second session like the morning session when it's getting darker and the ball starts to swing and seam. So first session you invariably play like you play from lunch to tea in a normal timing test match, then the second session would be like a morning session and the last session is like that evening session," Kohlli said at the post-match press conference. It seamed a lot more under lights, swung in the first hour of the second session but seamed throughout the evening till the end of day's play.
