The Hundred matches on Wednesday are scheduled to keep floodlights on throughout the games due to a solar eclipse. Organisers plan to ensure consistent lighting for players, officials, and spectators during the period when daylight levels may change.
Both outlets report the same operational decision: floodlights are turned on for the duration of the matches rather than only at specific moments. While the reports focus mainly on the match-day lighting adjustment, they do not describe broader effects such as changes to kick-off times, viewing arrangements, or any alterations to match procedures.
The key difference between the sources is wording rather than substance. India Today describes “hundred” (referring to The Hundred competition) in the context of keeping floodlights on throughout the Wednesday matches, while Sky Sports frames it as a decision to have floodlights on throughout the Hundred games specifically because of the eclipse.
