**Kanpur, India:** The second day of the second Test match between India and Bangladesh in Kanpur has been washed out due to persistent rain. No play was possible, with the covers remaining on the pitch throughout the day.

The match, which is part of a two-match series, saw the first day disrupted by rain as well, resulting in only 35 overs of play. India currently leads the series 1-0.

The weather forecast for Kanpur suggests an 80% chance of rain throughout the day, with a 51% chance of rain at the start of play. As a result, the start of the day’s play is expected to be delayed.

The second day was expected to see a resumption of the Bangladesh innings, which stands at 107/3. India’s bowlers, led by Akash Deep (2 wickets) and Ravichandran Ashwin (1 wicket), will be eager to make further inroads into the Bangladesh batting order.

However, the persistent rain has put a dampener on the proceedings, and the outcome of the match remains uncertain. The teams are currently back in their hotels, awaiting an update on the weather situation and the possibility of play resuming later in the day.
