Would you watch a day-night Test, or are the concerns of Test cricket’s demise overblown?Day-night Test matches have been given the support of the ICC’s chief executive, Haroon Lorgat, but a five-day game under lights will only take place once a suitable ball has been developed.

“The lack of crowd attendance at many grounds around the globe is a cause for concern,” Lorgat said. Last month Sutherland said that playing under lights “might be the only way that Test cricket stays alive”, with attendances reportedly in decline in the face of Twenty20’s growing popularity (CricInfo). Your views and whether this may help save test cricket or further demise it’s existence?

Are they going to change color of the ball for night-time innings?

EDIT: I guess they will:

Perhaps the pink ball that is already trialled may be in effect for day-night Tests. Is there any other option besides the pink ball and the white?

I am not sure how successful pink-ball was, but color-wise yellow will be something easier to spot during night. As the article suggests the ball is being developed, lets see if they the re-tune pink-ball or come up with something else.
