Ollie Robinson has branded day-night Test matches "gimmicky" ahead of England's pink ball game against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui, which will kick off their two-match series.
There have been 20 day-night Tests played since they were first introduced in 2015 and England have a particularly poor record when playing under floodlights with the pink ball. Since winning the first and only day-night Test to take place on home soil against the West Indies in 2017, England have lost their last five by very wide margins.
Robinson featured in two of those, defeats to Australia by 275 and 146 runs respectively in Adelaide and Hobart, and the 29-year-old has questioned the point of day-night Tests altogether.
