Australia head coach Matthew Mott has reiterated his call for five-day Test in women’s cricket, but former India captains Diana Edulji and Shantha Rangaswamy are among the ones who prefer status quo and instead want resumption of red-ball cricket in domestic cricket.
Mott and England captain Heather Knight suggested the need for making women’s Test matches a five-day affair from four after the pink-ball game between India and Australia ended in a draw. Close to 100 overs were lost in the game due to rain on the first two days. “It’s the five days for me,” said Mott after the drawn Test.
