Bad light interrupts second Test between Bangladesh and India

1 min read

Day one of the second Test between India and Bangladesh was cut short due to poor lighting on Friday in Kanpur, in northern India, with the visitors leading 107-3.

In the second session, officials removed players Mominul Haque (40) and Mushfiqur Rahim (6) from the field because of poor vision caused by thick clouds.

India, who lead the two-match series 1-0, elected to field in overcast conditions and fast bowler Akash Deep backed captain Rohit Sharma’s decision with two wickets in the first hour of play.

Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto, who made 31, put on 51 runs with Mominul to play out the remainder of the first session.

But first-match hero Ravichandran Ashwin removed the captain after lunch.

The hosts have come in unchanged with three seamers.
