Captain Smith Wary Of Pink Ball Test At Gabba Against Pakistan

Australia Captain Steven Smith has no qualms about playing another test at Adelaide Oval but is wary of how the pink ball will perform in the humid conditions expected at Brisbane later this year.
Australia play against Pakistan in the first test under lights  at the Gabba on Dec,15, despite warnings from former players and pundits that muggy conditions could make the ball unplayable for batsmen.
In the inaugural day-night match against New Zealand in drier Adelaide conditions last year,the ball hooped around menacingly during the floodlit late sessions and Australia won in three days.
