For the second day in a row, there was no action at Green Park. Day 3 of the second and final Test match of the series between India and Bangladesh passed without a ball being bowled. However, not a single drop of rain has fallen since Sunday morning. The referees’ eventual announcement after the second inspection at 2:00 pm IST sparked outrage among fans on social media.

It rained overnight in Kanpur, leading to a delay in the start of the match as players from India and Bangladesh remained at their team hotel. However, the sun shone in the afternoon and there were no damp spots on the ground, which gave hope that the game could continue. However, wet patches near the bowlers’ run-up area in the outfield could not be dried up as the umpires eventually called off at 2:00 pm IST on the third day after their second inspection.

The announcement sparked frustration among fans on social media, who raised questions about the stadium’s drainage system and called Green Park the “worst venue” while shaming BCCI for the “poor facilities” at the ground.

What is the forecast for day 4 and 5 in Kanpur?

Accordingly AccuweatherMonday and Tuesday are expected to be “sunniest,” with the chance of rain dropping significantly to just 3 percent. Although there were only two days of play left, the chances of a draw increased drastically as Bangladesh posted a first innings score of 107 for three.

On the first day, India opted to bowl in a home Test for the first time in nine years after winning the toss. They kept their playing XI unchanged, unlike the widely speculated inclusion of Kuldeep Yadav in place of Akash Deep. However, the decision to retain the fast bowler yielded immediate results after he took two quick wickets with the new ball while R Ashwin grabbed a wicket after lunch.

Day 4 continues with Mushfiqur Rahim on 6* and Monimul Haque on 40* in their 27-run fourth-wicket stand as Bangladesh are likely to head for a draw.
