India vs New Zealand Live Score, Bengaluru Weather Updates Day 2: Rain vs cricket resumes at Chinnaswamy Stadium
Rain didn’t relent enough to allow the state-of-the-art SubAir drainage system and the ground staff to come into play to make the playing arena fit for the game to begin. The forecast for October 17 isn’t very promising either, which keeps everybody’s fingers crossed.
With more rain predicted in the coming days, the outlook for Day 2 is less than optimistic. AccuWeather reports a temperature of around 27 degrees Celsius, with a ‘real feel’ of 31 degrees Celsius.
There is a significant 40 percent chance of rain, coupled with a 24 percent probability of thunderstorms later in the day, which could further complicate things.
The good part about the facilities at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium is that its modern drainage system can get the ground ready for play with 30 minutes after any amount of rain. But the hope is that there are as few weather interruptions as possible to allow a contest between the bat and the ball.
