In as meeting ICC committee has recommended using pink ball and the match could be taken place on flood-light.
Cricinfo reported:
"Except for certain icon series, such as the Ashes, Test cricket throughout the world, and in particular the lower-ranked nations, is in very real danger of dying," a statement by the committee said. "MCC's research proved that attendances at Test cricket have declined in recent years. In addition, there is a growing ambivalence towards the longer format of the game from cricketers in certain nations, with player surveys revealing that an IPL contract was the main career aspiration for many."
Rahul Dravid and Anil Kumble represent Indian along with the 19 men of the committee where Alec Stewart, Mike Atherton, Mike Brearley and most successful test winning captain present.
