The Kanpur Test match was a big buzz among the local fans and Day One was filled with excited people eager to witness the Indian Cricket Team compete. But Day 2 and Day 3 at the Green Park Stadium saw no play take place as the weather played a major impact.

Only 35 overs were completed in the Test match between India and Bangladesh, with both teams evenly matched. Rain caused significant disruptions, but forecasts predict better weather, raising hopes for play on the final days as the match leans towards a draw.

There are no meaningless Test matches when they are played between two sides competing in the World Test Championship and the same remains the case here. Therefore, one can understand a number of fans who had no intention of travelling to Green Park to see the proceedings feeling quite miffed that the BCCI chose this venue despite there being a chance of the match ending in a draw which could put more pressure on India in the race for the WTC final.
