India vs Bangladesh LIVE Score: Day 2 of the second Test between India and Bangladesh was washed out entirely without a single ball bowled at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. With Bangladesh in a precarious position, they would have hoped to build on Mominul's resilient knock, but the weather frustrated both teams. The forecast for the remaining days is not encouraging either, with more rain expected on Day 3. The weather has raised concerns about whether there will be enough play to force a result. This could be a huge blow for Bangladesh as they already trail 0-1 in the two-match series. (Live Scorecard)

- The outfield looks dry as well. pic.twitter.com/JV7zyXzxa2 - 08:57 (IST)IND vs BAN Live Score: Play talking pointsLet's look at some big talking points when it comes to play:1. No Ravindra Jadeja: India captain Rohit Sharma has not given a single out of 35 overs to Ravindra Jadeja, but is he likely to get the ball if play resumes? Unlikely, given the conditions.2. Bangladesh middle order: Bangladesh's experienced middle order -- Mominul, Mushfiqur, Shakib and Litton -- will need to come good.3. Forfeit innings? A highly unlikely scenario but could both sides forfeit one innings each to force a result in the match?
- 08:35 (IST)IND vs BAN Live: Kanpur weather forecastAs per Accuweather, light rain is expected in the early hours of Day 3. However, it is supposed to remain overcast after that with no rain, and a little bit of sun as the day goes on.Will that be enough to salvage some play? We can only hope.
