After two days, the second Test between India and Bangladesh finally resumed at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. The match is already heading towards a draw with a maximum of 196 overs possible in this Test but India have started their day well picking up a couple of wickets.
Bangladesh opted to bat first after winning the toss. They are missing their regular skipper Shakib Al Hasan today with Najmul Hossain Shanto leading the side. But their openers Litton Das and Tanzid Hasan created a unique World Cup record against India with their half-centuries.
Bangladesh fast bowler Ebadot Hossain will have to undergo a knee surgery, which puts him in doubt for the ODI World Cup in October-November in India.
