Day-Night Test Match: Australia will take on India in the second Test match of the five-match series from Friday, 6 December 2024, to Tuesday, 10 December 2024. This Test match will be a Day-Night match played with the Pink Ball at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide.
The last time India played a Day-Night Test match in Australia was in 2020 at the same venue in Adelaide. Under Virat Kohli’s leadership, the Indian team was bundled out for just 36 runs in that series opening match. Josh Hazlewood dismantled the Indian batting line-up for their lowest-ever score in the Test format.
But now, India could be in some respite as Josh Hazlewood is not fit for the second match of this five-match series, which the Men in Blue leads by a margin of 1-0. Before that Day-Night Test match starts, let us see the list of all the batsmen who have amassed a ton in the Day-Night Test Match.
