India and England are ready for a blockbuster semi-final to be played at Wankhede, but will rain spoil the party of the biggest match of the tournament?
The International Cricket Council has already organised a backup plan. There will be a reserve day plus extra playing time so that the match has a winner.
Officials have decided that they will add 90 mins on the first day and 120 mins on the reserve day. Even a 5-over game will take place to decide which team will get the golden ticket to the finale held at Narendra Modi Stadium on March 8.
If heavy rains continue across both days, the semi-final won't be replayed, and the winner will be decided based on their Super 8 standings, not by performance on that day.
In case of a complete washout, England will move into the final because they finished higher in the Super 8 with 3 out of 3 wins, while India ended second.
In 2022, England knocked India out to win the T20 World Cup. In 2024, India took revenge and went on to win it all Will rain decide the fate, or will history repeat itself?
