Rain Devastates Day 2:

Due to persistent rain, there was no play on Day 2. The likelihood of the game being played again was decreasing, so both teams stayed in their hotels. The officials canceled the entire day's play due to persistent rain and wet outfield conditions, despite the umpires conducting multiple inspections.

India's Bowling Strikes First

After Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, India's pace duo, were economical but failed to claim a wicket, Ashwin and Akash Deep took the lead. In just his second Test match, Akash Deep made an impact by applying pressure to the Bangladeshi batsmen and claiming two crucial wickets. As usual, Ashwin was dependable; he got rid of Shanto while Bangladesh attempted to recover. 

What Comes Next?

India now leads the two-match series 1-0 after winning the first Test in Chennai by a commanding 280 runs. More rain is predicted for Kanpur, which might have an impact on the next few days and result in a draw. India will play a three-match Test series against New Zealand following the series against Bangladesh.  

India's Primary Concerns

People are always talking about Virat Kohli's red-ball form. The Indian captain has put pressure on himself to become more consistent because his average in Test matches has fallen below fifty recently. The rest of the Indian team, which features great players like Rishabh Pant (who scored an incredible century in this series), will also have a major role in how the campaign turns out. 

Conclusion

After Bangladesh's opening-day score of 107/3, rain disrupted the second Test between India and Bangladesh, preventing any play on Day 2. Bangladesh's Mominul Haque held on, but India's bowlers—especially Ravichandran Ashwin and Akash Deep—made an early impression. The weather remains a significant factor because more rain is expected, which could affect the result. To increase their chances of winning and securing their spot in the World Test Championship, India, who lead the series 1-0, will be hoping for clear skies.
