3. Shreyas Iyer – 159 runs

Though the Indian batter has only played in a single day-night Test in his career so far, he managed to score an impressive 159 runs with a highest score of 92. Unfortunately, Iyer wasn’t able to make it to India’s squad for the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series.

4. Ajinkya Rahane – 100 runs

The India batter didn’t feature in many day-night Tests and wasn’t quite impressive in the ones where he did feature as well. Rahane hasn’t been selected in the Indian squad for the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series and thus won’t be participating in the day-night Test in Adelaide.

5. Cheteshwar Pujara – 98 runs

The India batter wasn’t really able to contribute well for the side in the 3 day-night Tests he participated in. Despite a stellar domestic season, Pujara wasn’t given a place in India’s squad for the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series.
