Teams can shift from red ball to pink in Test to deal with bad light

Teams can shift from red ball to pink in Test to deal with bad light

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has approved the trial run for a switch from red ball to pink ball midway through a Test deal with the issue of bad light reducing playing time. Both teams would have to agree before the start of the game to the change in the colour of the ball if the weather dictated so and play under lights. The ICC board approved the recommendations of its Chief Executives Committee during the meeting in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The proposal to use different balls during a Test was among the many that the ICC board has approved. So far in Test matches, teams can either use the red ball or pink. The pink ball was first used in a day-night Test between Australia and New Zealand at Adelaide in 2015.

For nearly four months, a 51-year-old school teacher believed her symptoms were linked to age, stress and digestive trouble. She had gradually stopped enjoying meals because she felt unusually full after eating only a few bites. Her abdomen often felt bloated by evening. A cup of tea was followed by acidity. Dinner became uncomfortable. She began skipping meals, assuming menopause and erratic eating habits were upsetting her stomach. Her family noticed she had lost weight but she dismissed concerns casually. “I just don’t feel hungry anymore,” she told them. By the time she finally sought medical attention after persistent abdominal discomfort and fatigue, scans revealed advanced ovarian cancer. Doctors say this pattern is tragically common. Loss of appetite is rarely the first symptom people associate with cancer. Most women attribute it to indigestion, stress, gastritis, hormonal changes or temporary illness. Yet persistent appetite loss — especially when combined with bloating, abdominal heaviness or feeling full very quickly — can sometimes signal something far more serious. Among the cancers most notorious for hiding behind vague digestive …
