The umpires are conducting an inspection of the outfield which still looks quite damp in some places.
It is quite gloomy at the Green Park Stadium which has resulted in the ground not drying quickly enough.
The umpires also spoke to the groundstaff and the teams before announcing that they will conduct another inspection at 2pm IST.
The entire second day was washed out without a ball being bowled, and only 35 overs were bowled on the opening day, when the start of the match was delayed by an hour due to a wet outfield.
