English Cricket Board were planning on introducing coloured clothes for the Day And Night test match which is scheduled for 2010 May next year between England and Bangladesh.The ICC (International Cricket Council) supported this new venture and they also suggested to make a white cricket ball which can be used to play longer versions of the game.
Umpire Dickie Bird who was the first umpire to stand in 50 test matches commented that it is best to play test matches in white clothes and to play during the day time.
