'He didn't even want to start the match...' New twist in Kanpur test match, pitch curator made big allegation of fixing on umpires 2

Let us tell you that 35 overs were played on the first day of the Kanpur Test match. After that the match could not start due to rain. Whereas on the second day too, due to heavy rain, stumping was done without play taking place. But on the third day the weather was clear and there was no rain at all. Even after this the day's play was stumped very soon.

After which now the fans are raising questions that why the match did not start when it did not rain. On the third day not even a single over could be played. Then the Kanpur pitch curator gave a big statement while talking to the media.

Pitch curator accused the umpire

Speaking to the media, the curator of Kanpur Maidan said, “They gave us 3 different times for inspection. But never told us what the problem was. Which area was wet or whatever the problem is. I told him that you can start the match. Let me know if you have any concerns.”

Now after this statement of the pitch curator, some fans believe that the umpire deliberately does not want to start the match. So that the match gets drawn and India suffers a loss on the WTC points table. At the same time, some fans are now accusing the umpire of fixing. However, we do not claim fixing in the Kanpur match or anything related to it.

Fourth day's play continues

Play continues on the fourth day of the second test match. Batting in the first innings, Bangladesh team is scoring 177 runs at the loss of 6 wickets. If there is no result in this match then India may have to face loss. Because, if the Indian team had won the second match against Bangladesh also, then the team would have strengthened its claim for the WTC final.
