Continuous overnight rain left the outfield soaked and covered in puddles. Although the sun occasionally peeked through in the morning, dark clouds quickly rolled in, resulting in heavy downpours. An early lunch was called, casting doubt on the possibility of resuming play. Ultimately, around 2:10 PM IST, the on-field umpires and match referee conducted a final inspection and decided to cancel the game for the day.
Bangladesh’s opening duo Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam began the batting cautiously yesterday as Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj effectively utilized the new ball. After eight overs and a score of 26 without loss, Rohit Sharma brought in Akash Deep, who quickly took Zakir’s wicket on his first ball. The Bengal pacer struck again, removing Islam and giving India a crucial edge. Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mominul Haque then formed a brisk 45-run partnership, taking the score to 74/2 at lunch, despite a drizzle. Following the break, Ravichandran Ashwin dismissed the Bangladesh captain, but play was soon halted due to poor light as dark clouds rolled in.

Nature is more powerful than Rich & Poor!
BCCI the richest cricket board !
Who will be responsible if India misses the WTC final bcz of this match ? One bad match in NZ series and we will be forced to win couple of matches in BGT.

I don’t think game gonna happen!
The rain’s finally decided to give us a break! Super Soppers are out in full force now. Hopefully they can soak up all this extra moisture. It’s looking a bit brighter , but still pretty soggy. Gonna take some serious work to get this ground ready for action! #INDvsBAN pic.twitter.com/VJUvgODoDE
