Most wickets for India in pink ball test matches

Most wickets for India in pink ball test matches: This time the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is being played in Australia, for which a five-match Test series has started between India and Australia. The first Test was played in Perth, in which India registered a tremendous victory. Now everyone's eyes are on the day-night i.e. pink ball test to be held in Adelaide from December 6. The Indian team plays very few matches with the pink ball, but it has to play the second match in Australia with it.

Day-night Tests started only a few years ago and India has not played many matches yet. The BCCI is not so keen to host matches with the pink ball at home. For this reason, Team India has played only 4 pink ball tests and has won three of them. While it has also lost one. In this article, we are going to mention those 3 Indian bowlers who have taken the most wickets in the pink ball test.
