India vs Bangladesh 2nd Test Updates
We will make regular updates to this India v Bangladesh Test in the section below.
Day 1 End of Day
With rain falling through almost half of the day’s play, only 35 overs were possible in the entire day’s play and Bangladesh got to 107 for three before the heavens opened.
And with rain forecast on days two and three as well, it’s no surprise that a draw looks as close to an Indian win at the moment.
Open you account with Dafabet or 1xbet to get 10/11 for India to register a win and 19/20 for a draw. Bangladesh are 60/1 to win this at the moment.
What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
India had come into the series playing their first Test since that famous series against England, winning that home series 4-1. Even in that series, they were surprised by England’s approach in the opening game before making a comeback in the rest of the series, coming back from being 0-1 down to win the next four.
Their only other Test this year before that series came on their tour of South Africa, which they won after bowling the hosts out 55 in the first innings. India had lost the first Test in that series late last year.
Bangladesh had triggered a 2-0 series whitewash of Pakistan but more vitally they did it in Rawalpindi in conditions that didn’t suit their spinners. It was down to their seam bowlers who conjured up a magical performance, while some of it goes down to their lower-order batting – coming back to win from precarious situations in both games.
In the first match of this series at Chennai, Bangladesh had their moments in the match but India proved to be far too strong for their counterparts, winning by 280 runs in the end.

Quick IND vs BAN 2nd Test Preview
India overcame early trouble in the opening Test of the series to register a convincing, 280-run win over Bangladesh and grab a 1-0 lead. R Ashwin, aided by the bounce on red soil and increasing turn, proved to be the cornerstone of the side’s success yet again.
Unfortunately for him, and for India, they will have to come up with new tricks in Kanpur where the pitch will be black-soiled and as a result of that, will be slower in nature.
Slow turn is way easier to play, even if it spins a lot, than a quicker, bouncier pitch that offers spin and that could mean that India will need to change their tactics around for this one.
One of the ways to do that could be to bring in Kuldeep Yadav in place of one of the seamers. It’s Kuldeep’s home ground and his ability to turn the ball both ways at pace could be a factor.
Bangladesh’s batting left a lot to desire, especially in the first innings when they lost half their side with less than 50 on the board. They made a better fist of it in the second innings but came second by some distance given India had earlier punctured their bowling with a score of 287/4 before declaring their innings.
Shakib-al-Hasan’s injury will be a concern and if they lose him before the game, it might weaken the top-order even more.
