IND vs BDESH 2024/25, IND vs BAN 2nd Evaluation Evaluation Report, September 27 – October 01, 2024

For the second day in a row, there was no play in the second Test between India and Bangladesh in Kanpur. Unlike Saturday, there was not a single drop of rain today but the wet pitch led to the game being called off at 2pm. The strange thing is that as soon as the referees made that decision, the sun appeared from behind the clouds.

After three days, Bangladesh are 107 for 3 in the first innings of the Test. There are still two days left but the chances of a result are very slim.

The day began with the covers being removed from the field, with testing scheduled for 10am. Soon, the ground crew removed the main cover and started marking the crease on both sides of the field.

But when the umpires came out to check, they found some places on the field, especially in the middle off, middle on and the bowler’s run from the end of the media box, it is too bitter for him to start playing.

They scheduled the next test at noon. But things did not improve, which angered the fans as it was Sunday, they came out in large numbers.

All the while, the ground crew seemed to rely solely on the sun to work its magic. There was another test at 2pm, when the umpires decided it was the day.
