'Don't be scared' - Pollock bats for pink-ball switch for light-affected Tests

Former cricketer Shaun Pollock has advocated for the use of pink balls in Test matches affected by poor light. Pollock suggests that switching to the pink ball would allow play to continue during conditions that would otherwise necessitate a suspension of the game when using the traditional red ball.

The proposal aims to address the frequent interruptions caused by fading light in Test cricket. By adopting the pink ball, which is designed for better visibility under floodlights, officials could maintain the continuity of matches that are currently halted due to safety concerns regarding the red ball's visibility.
