    Tri-series was abandoned 2 years ago due to apparent poor viewing numbers for the games not having Australia in them. Now it is a best of 5 series against both of the touring nations.

    Amusing Fact: Australia has not won a series at home since swapping to the Green strip

    The clash with Pakistans traditional strip is a joke too.

    Didn't watch Friday but didn't hear it mentioned yesterday, must have had enough feedback or I just missed it.

    I notice an upcoming South Aus v West Aus "test series" will be with a pink ball too.

    Back on topic now...

    That is the Futures League which is the 2nd tier competition dometic competiton, Under 23's with 3 over age players per side I believe, consisting of 3 day and 20/20 Cricket

    CA is testing the new balls with the view to eventual Day/Night Tests

    Was a good stink about the ball last night with the Pakistan captain claiming the replacement wasn't the ball he selected pre match...
    As pointed out by commentary, I don't understand (and open to the answer) why they don't just have a ball for each end?

    Funnily enough a ball at each end is currently being trialled in this years domestic one day competition, took me by surprise as I hadn't seen anything about it until the first game between WA and QLD at the WACA

    You reckon they would have worked it out after the strip clash in the test series!
