We don't need D/N Tests for format to survive: Michael Clarke - chairman - 04-30-2014
New Delhi: The ICC might think of day/night Tests as an innovation to keep Test cricket alive and kicking, but Australian skipper Michael Clarke feels that such a revamp is not needed to save the five-day game.
"I think there is room for all three forms of the game. It is great that ODI and T20 cricket can be day/night, but I don't believe we need day/night Tests for Test cricket to survive," Clarke told ESPNcricinfo in an interview.
Clarke, 33, also responded to former New Zealand skipper Martin Crowe's recent criticism of Australian aggression towards opposition players. The batsman defended the Aussie approach as tough and fair.

Daytime Test cricket appears to be well and alive in Australia .....
However, I very much doubt if WI/NZ will draw a full ground ......
