India and Bangladesh will be facing each other in Kolkata’s day-night Test starting November 22. 

Neither team has ever played a day-night Test before and hence many dignitaries have been invited for the historic event.

Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will be attending the first day's proceedings while Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also been sent an invite. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is also scheduled to be present.

According to a source privy to the development told IANS on Friday said tennis great and local boy Leander Paes and Indian national badminton coach Pullela Gopichand could also be among the clutch to be present for the match.

BCCI president Sourav Ganguly on Thursday said he is also trying to bring Sachin Tendulkar as part of the Indian team which took on Bangladesh for the first time in 2000. 

Chess legend Viswanathan Anand and tennis star Sania Mirza will also be present along with World badminton champion P.V. Sindhu, six-time World champion boxer Mary Kom and India's only Olympic gold medallist Abhinav Bindra, whom the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) plans to felicitate.

During the 40-minute supper break in the match, the CAB are planning a charity match for HIV-positive children on the first day of the pink-ball Test.

The first day could also see a helicopter revolving around the Eden Gardens from which a skydiver will come flying on to the ground with the trophy in his hand, according to IANS.

Pink colours might also be showered from the sky as well as the tickets for the match will have a pink tinge.
