Which is the canon lens used to shoot at night times

Pretty vague question. Didn't specify the sport (i.e. distance) or budget.

Most outdoor games you'll want a 400mm F2.8 or 70-200 F2.8 but if you're shooting a night table tennis game you can get away with a 50mm F1.8.
 
All of them.

It depends on what you are trying to do and the conditions in which you are doing it. Can you provide better information regarding your intended goal?

This is too broad of a question. It's like asking "Which automobile is used for driving on land"?

What is your subject matter?
Are you planning to use a tripod?
Are you planning on using a flash?
Will any other light sources be available?
Will the subject be moving or still?
What Canon body are you using?
etc
etc
etc
 
I have canon 5d m3 n I m doing a short film n yes light resource is available n I also have 70-200 mm iso 2.8 n a tripod n there will be moving directions also.So Is 70-200 enough or do I need to use any other lens.pls guide I m just a learner

i used to use sigma 35mm f1.4 Art series lens. very sharp lens and the focus is spot on. even with the thin dof, the lens makes sure the area is sharp where you intended to focus.
the only reason i don't have this lens now it because of the size and weight.
 
High ISO capability is also a factor if you want stars, milky way etc to show. A function of the body not lens.

Fast aperture, 2.8 or less, 50 mm 1.2 comes to mind for night portraits.
