Day-night Ashes Test 'distinct possibility', feels Cricket Australia CEO

Sydney, Apr 21 (IBNS): Cricket Australia has announced that the first Day-Night Ashes Test is a "distinct possibility"during the 2017-18 edition of the epic clash between Australia and England.

Cricket Australia Chief Executive Officer James Sutherland told cricket.com.au: "I think it's a distinct possibility."

He said: "And it may well be that there is a day-night Test match in the Ashes series in 2017-18."

Sutherland said he hopes to see more nations hosting day-night Tests in coming years.

"I think over the course of the next 12 months or so we'll see day-night Test cricket being played in other countries other than Australia," he said.

"I'm really confident that other member boards are very keen to do that," he said.
