Steve Smith Explains the Challenges of Pink Ball Cricket
However, before the upcoming Test, Steve Smith has put forth his point of view on the pink ball. According to him, playing the pink ball is not so easy and sometimes it becomes very difficult to understand it.
Let us tell you that in the last Pink Ball Test match played between these two teams, Team India was all out for just 36 runs in their second innings. Star Sports has shared a video, in which Steve Smith said, ‘Sometimes it becomes very difficult to understand the pink ball day and night. You have to bat by understanding the situation of the game.’

Pat Cummins and Travis Head Share Insights
At the same time, Australia team captain Pat Cummins said, ‘I feel that all things are basic. Sometimes the game moves at a different pace and it becomes very difficult to understand the ball. But this is Test cricket.’
Travis Head said, ‘It is very difficult to bat on this wicket. But you have to score runs differently. I have played many matches here and I have an idea of this. Whatever I have done in the last two years, I would like to do the same this year as well. It has been a very good week for me and that is why I am not too worried.
I have a lot of friends and family and many people have come to watch me play. I hope that I will be able to score big for my team in the Adelaide Test as well.
