The second Test between India and Bangladesh at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur has so far been dominated by rain. On Day 1, only 35 overs were bowled and the chances of any play on Day 2 are looking bleak as well. So, with rain playing spoilsport so far, let's see how the weather in Kanpur will shape up during the remaining three days of the Test match.
For starters, there are less chances of rain on all the remaining days of the Test match compared to the opening two days. On Sunday, Day 3 of the Test match, there are 59 percent chances of precipitation, but they are likely to be light showers and would be most concentrated in the morning. So, there could be a delayed start, but we are likely to get decent amount of cricket on Day 3. However, the overhead conditions would remain cloudy throughout the day.
Day 4 And Day 5 To Be The Best Days For Cricket
On Monday, Day 4 of the Test match, the conditions would be much better than Day 3 and we might see full quota of overs on the penultimate day. It is also expected to be sunny on Day 4 and the final day of the Test match is also likely to be good for cricket with only one percent chance of precipitation.

So, we can expect good amount of cricket on the last three days, but the chances of this Test producing result are quite low. So far Bangladesh have lost three wickets and have 107 on the board, and if this game does produce a result, it would be quite an interesting match from hereon. However, the drainage system is also a bit of issue at the Green Park stadium, and all cricket fans would be hoping that rain stays away, and cricket takes centrestage in Kanpur.
