Kanpur, 28 Sept
The second day of the second Test between India and
Bangladesh was on Saturday called off without a ball being bowled due to
persistent downpour.
The drizzle in the morning turned into heavy rain, not
letting the action begin on day two at Green Park Stadium. The groundsmen put
the three super soppers to work around 11:15 am after the rain stopped. The
visibility was also poor.
As conditions did not improve, the second day's play was
called off officially at 2:15pm. As per the weather forecast, the city is
expected to receive rain even on Sunday but Monday and Tuesday are likely to be
sunny and warm. In that scenario, the match seems to be headed for a draw.
Bangladesh had ended the rain-curtailed opening day at 107
for three as only 35 overs could be bowled. India pacer Akash Deep accounted
for Bangladeshi openers -- Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam -- while off-spinner
Ravichandran Ashwin sent back rival skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto. India are
leading the two-match series 1-0, having won the Chennai Test by 280 runs. -PTI
