India vs Bangladesh 2nd Test Live: Problem for India
This test, if it ends in a draw, will cause a major headache for India. Here's Why

As it stands, India lead the WTC standings with a percentage points (PCT) tally of 71.67 after 10 matches, putting them in a prime position to make their third consecutive final. A 2-0 series win over Bangladesh would have left India needing only three more wins from their remaining eight matches to secure a spot in the WTC final.

However, with rain looming large over the second Test, a draw could complicate India's path to the final.

Should this Test ended in a draw, India will need to win five of their next eight Test matches to cement their place in the WTC final, assuming other contenders for a top-two finish do not drop points.
