IND vs AUS Pink Ball Test: Adelaide’s pitch will blow away the batsmen, pacers or spinners, know who will get help
IND vs AUS Pink Ball Test Match Pitch: The Indian team started the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia with a bang and won the first match played in Perth by 295 runs in just four days. Now the second test match of the series will be played between the two teams at Adelaide Oval Stadium from 6th December. This match will be played with pink ball in which once again everyone can see the dominance of the bowlers. In day-night test matches, mostly fast bowlers i.e. pacers seem to dominate. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes are fixed on the pitch of this match. Adelaide Oval’s pitch curator Damien Hogg’s statement regarding this has also shocked the batsmen of both the teams even before the start of the match.
6 mm grass will be seen on the pitch
Adelaide Oval’s pitch curator Damien Hogg, in his statement regarding the pitch of the pink ball Test match between India and Australia, said that 6 mm of grass will be left in it, which will help the fast bowlers a lot in the first two days. As the game progresses, spinners will also be able to perform well. It is not easy to bat here at night, which we have seen in previous matches also. Our reason behind leaving grass was to get better pace and bounce from the pitch. We have prepared this pitch keeping all things in mind. Spinners will also be able to take help from the presence of grass on the pitch in which their ball can come out faster, which will not make it easy for the batsmen to play. However, as the ball gets older, batting on this pitch will definitely become a little easier.
More chances of rain on the first day of Adelaide Test
On December 6, the first day of the Adelaide Test match between India and Australia, there may be a disturbance of rain. The probability of rain has been predicted to be 88 percent. In such a situation, the role of toss will be very important because whichever team wins it can decide to bowl first considering the pitch and conditions. Let us tell you that the last time India played a pink ball match on the Adelaide grounds, it ended within three days in which Team India’s second innings was reduced to just 36 runs.
