IND - NZ test match: Heavy Rain continues in Bangalore..!?
It has been learned that the first Test match between india and new zealand is unlikely to start as planned due to heavy rain. Many Bangalore fans are disappointed by this. The first Test between india and new zealand will begin in Bangalore in a few hours. While the indian team has won the Test series against the bangladesh team, on the other hand, the new zealand team has lost the Test series against the Sri Lankan team. Due to this, there is an expectation that the new zealand team will show their struggle on indian soil.
Tim Southee has resigned from the captaincy of the new zealand team, and tom Latham has been appointed as the new captain. Star player Kane Williamson also withdrew from the first Test match due to injury. Thus it is seen whether the new zealand team can challenge the strong indian team. As for the new zealand team, they have lost 12 consecutive Test series on indian soil. Also, since the match is being played at the Chinnachami Stadium in Bangalore, the pitch is expected to favor the spinners. Meanwhile, there is a doubt whether the first Test match will take place in full for 5 days. The weather report revealed that the first 2 days of the first test match are likely to be affected by rain. The one-day practice of both teams has already been canceled due to rain. However, Bangalore's Chinnachami Stadium has world-class drainage facilities. As a result, even if it rains, the ground staff can prepare the pitch within a few minutes. In this situation, it is raining continuously in the areas where the Chinnachami ground is located. As a result, most of the ground is covered with tarpaulin. As a result, it has been revealed that there is no possibility of starting the match as planned. Due to this, there has been a delay in the toss.
