2nd Test: Rain Threat Looms As India Look To Seal Series, Bangladesh Eye Stronger Fight
One of the primary factors influencing this Test will be the pitch and the weather. Traditionally, Kanpur offers balanced Test pitches. Fast bowlers enjoy some assistance on the first morning with movement and bounce, while the surface flattens out as the match progresses, aiding batsmen. In the latter half of the Test, spinners come into play, particularly on days four and five. This makes it crucial for both teams to get their strategy and combination right.
However, the weather could throw a spanner into the plans. Rain is forecast for the first three days of the match, which could impact not only the pitch’s behaviour but also the team selections and the toss decision. Wet conditions could mean less assistance for spinners early on and more for the seamers, deciding to bat or bowl first all the more complex.
