The International Cricket Council has approved the usage of pink balls in day-time Tests on a trial basis.

Another rule change states that play will not end at the fall of a wicket in the last over of the day. Furthermore, batters wasting time will be given two warnings before a penalty of five runs is awarded to the fielding side after a third offence.
