For the second consecutive day, rain washed out play in the Duleep Trophy cricket tournament.

Just like yesterday, the third day's play in the four-day match between India Green and India Blue in Kanpur was also washed out.

On the opening day of the final round-robin fixture of the tournament, India Green, who dismissed the Blues for a paltry 177, were 100 for three at stumps.

Parvez Rasool was the star for India Green, claiming five wickets for 70 runs in 17 overs.

Senior India speedster Ishant Sharma, playing a first-class match after six months, bowled a steady line, taking one for 15 in seven overs.

The match is headed for a tame draw as India Green still trail India Blue by 77 runs with seven wickets in hand.
