Rain Threatens to Disrupt India vs Bangladesh 2nd Test in Kanpur

As the excitement builds around the India vs Bangladesh 2nd Test, attention turns to the weather conditions in Kanpur today (September 27). The highly anticipated match will kick off at Green Park Stadium, following India's emphatic win in the first Test at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The Indian team heads into this match with strong confidence. Meanwhile, Shakib Al Hasan has made headlines by announcing that this could be his final Test appearance, as he confirmed he has already played his last T20I.

With all the buzz surrounding the Test in Kanpur, the weather is another crucial factor to consider today (September 27). The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for the city due to expected rainfall, raising concerns that the weather might interfere with the opening day of the IND vs BAN Test match.

According to Accuweather's predictions, the first day of the Test is set to be "cloudy with periods of rain and a thunderstorm," with a precipitation probability of 96%. Additionally, the forecast from another weather site indicates the likelihood of rain and thunderstorms beginning after 11:15 AM, with the highest chance of rain occurring in the afternoon.

While these forecasts may cast a shadow over the prospects of uninterrupted Test cricket, there remains hope that enough playing time will be available for an exciting conclusion to the second Test.
