Rain In Kanpur Threatens India’s Push For WTC Final Spot

By IANS News September 28, 2024 • 14:04 PM View: 410

Green Park Stadium: Rain and a wet outfield have played spoilsport in the second Test between India and Bangladesh at Green Park Stadium, with the weather threatening to derail India’s quest for a spot in the World Test Championship (WTC) final.

Only 35 overs were bowled on Day 1 as Bangladesh struggled to 107/3, with Indian pacer Akash Deep impressing by picking up two crucial wickets. However, continuous drizzle on Day 2 has kept the covers on, raising concerns that a significant chunk of play could be lost.
