Will rain thwart India in Kolkata?

Question

After posting a formidable first innings total of 643 (declared) in answer to South Africa’s 296 in the second Test at Kolkata, will the rain that fell on day four prevent India from taking the victory they need in the match? South Africa were 115-3 at stumps on day four.

Answer 1

Rain was the last thing India would have wanted, as they need victory here to retain the No. 1 ranking. The lost time could yet prove their undoing.
