Highlights:

Rain washed out Day 2 of the IND vs BAN 2nd Test as well.

Check the weather for the rest of the three days.

The second and final Test of the two-match series between India and Bangladesh is presently underway at Kanpur's Green Park International Stadium. Because of the weather on both Day 1 and Day 2, the match has been somewhat of a damp squib. After a delayed start on Day 1, only 35 overs were bowled, and on Day 2, the play was called off completely without bowling a ball. There is now concern that if the weather continues until Day 5 of the tournament, the match might be called off.

 

Rain to affect Day 3 as well

 

According to Accuweather.com, on Day 3, the rain is probably going to continue in Kanpur as well. The match is scheduled to take place during the day when there is a 59% probability of rain. A thunderstorm with a 35% cloud cover is also 14% likely. Therefore, another washout could occur.

Weather on Day 4 and 5

 

Day 4 and Day 5 of the Test match appear to have better weather. Accuweather predicts only 5% and 6% of rain for each of the two days. As a result, there may be two full days of play. This implies that there is a far lower likelihood of the game being completely washed out. 

 

In the second Test match with Bangladesh, India chose to field after winning the toss. Rohit Sharma announced that they would be sticking with the same starting lineup for the game. Nevertheless, the play was called off after just 35 overs of bowling during the match, meaning that just 35 overs of play could be completed. Bangladesh finished the day with a 105/3 total, with Akash Deep emerging as the standout Indian bowler with two wickets.
