Green Park Stadium’s Poor Drainage System Sparks Outrage After No Show On Day Three
Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association: Despite a rain-free morning and bright sunshine later in the day, day three’s play of the second Test between India and Bangladesh was called off without a ball being bowled at the Green Park Stadium.
The unexpected cause? A ‘wet outfield’. Frustration grew as both teams remained at their hotel, while match officials inspected the field three times, all without covers. But there was no play, leading to two days now lost due to rain.
Shiv Kumar, the pitch curator of the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) maintained that everything was under control in Kanpur. But he admitted to having confusion regarding the match officials’ reservations.
