According to experts, the practice game holds more prominence as it was the pink ball only which led to India’s downfall on the previous tour to Australia in 2020-21.

In 2020-21, the Indian batting line-up collapsed in Adelaide on Day 3 of the first match of the Border-Gavaskar series, and they achieved an unfortunate record as they ended up with their lowest score in Test history at that time. In that match, Hazlewood and Cummins finished with figures of 5 for 8 and 4 for 21, respectively.
