Persistent rain following Cyclone Arnab’s landfall brought an end to Day Three of the Ranji Trophy Group B clash between Andhra and Chhattisgarh, with no play possible at the DVR Ground on Wednesday.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) classified the cyclone as a ‘very severe cyclonic storm’ (VSCS), warning of widespread rainfall and strong winds across parts of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha.

With the ground fully covered, neither the officials nor the ground staff made any move to resume play. The players remained confined to the dressing room before the umpires called stumps at 12.40 p.m. local time.

While Andhra’s squad arrived at the ground at the scheduled start time of 9.30 a.m., the Chhattisgarh contingent stayed back at its hotel, nearly 30 km from the venue, with the overnight downpour making a washout almost certain.

Both teams will hope for improved conditions on the final day, with three points still up for grabs. Chhattisgarh is 15 runs short of Andhra’s first-innings total of 231, with only two wickets in hand.

For the visiting side, No. 4 batter Amandeep Khare remains unbeaten on 74.

Chhattisgarh sits seventh in Group B with one point, while Andhra is fifth with three points after two rounds.
