Why no usage of flood lits for Mohali Test ?

To avoid all this why didn’t the BCCI and ECB opt for usage of flood lights when BCCI knows that in winter the mornings in North India are foggy and cold. Plus the sun sets early.

10.20am Latest news, the umpires will look again in 10-15 minutes time. The light isn't good enough yet, but it's slowly getting better. The players are out in the middle preparing. So it's still a waiting game.

10.15am Still waiting for a word on the start time, it doesn't look like we'll underway at 10.30 like yesterday. I will try and bring you news in a moment.

10.05am The fog continues to lift, albeit slowly, and we still don't have a start time. A few players out on the outfield warming up, but with plenty of layers on as it's quite chilly.

9.50am "I don't understand why England has given up and will now be playing for a draw??," says Saurabh. "Understandably their position is not the best, but wouldn't fighting and playing to win the game will be a way to go?" Indeed, they were odd comments from Pietersen but it's refreshing, in a way, to here an international speak the truth. He didn't sound best pleased after his lbw decision, either.
