New Zealand will play against Australia in cricket's first day-night Test later this year.

They meet in a three-match Test series in November, with the final match to be played at night in Adelaide.

"One of the global challenges with Test cricket is that most of the matches outside holiday periods are played on weekdays, in the middle of the day when people are at work and kids are at school," Cricket Australia James Sutherland told BBC Sport.

"By shifting the playing times, each day's play can go into the evening and allow people to come in after work or after school to attend the last few hours of play."

A pink ball will be used, while players will still wear traditional cricket whites.
