And it looks as though the ICC has washed its hands of any potential changes to the bad light situation claiming that captains rejected the idea of finishing a Test match under floodlights as they are afraid of unjust finishes:

I am not really sure how you can have an unjust finish when you have less than 30 runs required to win. At a minimum, the floodlights would ensure that the allotted number of overs are bowled each day. Too many overs are lost each day due to slow over rates. This also seems to fly in the face of the ICC trying to introduce day/night Test matches.

Mark Wood has been recording video diaries throughout the tour of the UAE. His wrap-up of the first Test with Ben Stokes is comedy gold. The best part is when Stokes' Geordie accent inexplicably morphs into patois.

MaleahNow that Joe Root has 2 centuries in Australia, I assume those Australian fans, who said he couldn’t be classed as great unless he achieved that, will now say he is?? Given that the great Steve Smith has never scored a test ton in Pakistan….(05.01.2026, 12:31)(12:31)0
