While Team India is praised by everyone for their performance in first pink ball test match, Norway's great chess player Magnus Carlson was not too impressed with this game. However, everyone likes their game and in other sports people have very little choice. Perhaps the same is with Magnus Carlson.

In fact, legendary player Magnus Carlson was also invited for the historic day-night Test match played at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Carlson, a five-time world champion, was also involved in an hour-long concert at the Kolkata stadium with Vishwanathan Anand on the second day of the match, but Carlson felt the incident was stupid for him.

Magnus Carlson said about his experience, "What happened there, (Vishwanathan) Anand played the bell and I stood there, I was looking like an idiot."That's my essence about this match. When it comes to cricket, I have to learn a lot about this game right now."

Later he also asked about this match, "Is this match still going on or is it over?" When Carlson was told that India had won this match, he said, "So … now there is no chance of going there (watching the match)." Carlson does not know much about cricket, so he has no particular liking in the game. Significantly, in this match, the host Indian team beat Bangladesh by an innings and 46 runs.
