IND vs ENG: Pink Ball Lacquer Comes Into Sharp Focus As Grass On Pitch Shaved Off

By IANS News February 23, 2021 • 21:08 PM View: 2401

Slowly but surely, the grass on the pitch of the reconstructed Motera stadium has been shaved off over the last four days going by the images posted by the England team's media wing, leaving it only a guess as to how long the pink ball will last on a surface that has only a few patches of grass left now.

The red ball's behavior on this pitch would have been easier to guess but with the pink ball to be used for the third Test between India and England, no one knows how it will behave.
