Meanwhile, play on Day 3 will be extended to accommodate 92 overs after the second day’s play was called earlier than usual due to bad light. The second session will be extended by 5 mins.

KS Bharat is set for a tough challenge as Kanpur pitch has been playing up and down and is expected to deteriorate from Day 3. Notably, Bharat was in the squad and was expected to make his debut in the ongoing series but India preferred the senior wicketkeeper in Saha who did not play in England as Pant was the preferred first-choice gloveman.

The pressure on Saha grows as the senior wicketkeeper failed with the bat, managing just 1 run when India needed their senior batters in the middle-order to step up in the first innings earlier in the Kanpur Test.
