On the other hand, if we tell you the status of this match, only 35 overs could be played on the first day of the game. Also, not a single over could be played on the second day due to rain. However, if BBC weather reports are to be believed, then there is a possibility of rain till the afternoon of the third day of the game. Apart from this, light rain can also be seen on the fourth day, but the weather is likely to be completely clear on the fifth day of the game.

Now it will be worth seeing when the ongoing Test match between India and Bangladesh in Kanpur is going to start. However, looking at the rain, it is not sure that the match will be able to start in the coming two days.
