'Structural Concerns' Cast Shadow Over Kanpur’s Green Park Ahead Of India-Bangladesh Test

By IANS News September 26, 2024 • 12:26 PM View: 340

The Uttar Pradesh Public Works: A day before India and Bangladesh are set to face off in the second Test, 'structural concerns' have arisen at Green Park Stadium, forcing officials to limit ticket sales for one of the stands.

The Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (PWD) has deemed the Balcony C stand "unsafe to hold a full-capacity crowd", putting a damper on preparations for the match.

Government engineers, after a thorough inspection on Thursday, concluded that the Balcony C stand may not be able to withstand the weight of its 4,800-person capacity.
