India(IND) vs Bangladesh(BAN)2nd Test, Day 3 LIVE: The second day’s play was called off in India’s weather-plagued second test against Bangladesh without a ball being bowled, following intermittent rain in Kanpur on Saturday. Will it be the same on Day 3? Rain and a wet outfield had allowed only 35 overs of play on Friday and the start of the second day’s play was also delayed by inclement weather. The on-again, off-again rainfall kept the covers on and the umpires decided to call off play with Bangladesh, bidding for a series-levelling victory, stuck on 107-3 in their first innings.
While the weather will likely improve slightly on Sunday, a draw looms over the contest given the time lost to rain. Playing XIs: India: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wk), KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Akash Deep, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj Bangladesh: Shadman Islam, Zakir Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Das (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taijul Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Khaled Ahmed With significant overs lost across both days, it’s likely play will begin 30 minutes earlier, weather permitting. Fortunately, today’s weather looks far more promising than on Day 2, raising hopes of seeing a full day’s action.
Stay tuned for more updates as we anticipate a potentially pivotal day of cricket! On the other hand, Bangladesh won’t deviate from their approach on Day 1, lookin.
