India and England have already qualified for the semi-final 2 of the T20 World Cup 2024. Now, the question is which team will reach the T20 World Cup 2024 Final. The highly anticipated match between India and England is scheduled to be played at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. India will look to take revenge for the loss when the two teams meet each other in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022. Can India get redemption with a win in Guyana to reach the T20 World Cup 2024 Final? It remains to be seen.
Currently, the Guyana weather does not look too promising for a match. At the moment, the thunderstorms are ravaging the city, and there does not seem to be a relief from that in the upcoming days. If it rains consistently for the next 3 days, then it would be impossible for the India vs England match to take place. ICC has not allowed a reverse day for the Semi-final 2. There is only a provision for the extra 240 minutes in the game to restart after a rain. On the other hand, the semi-final 1 has a reserved day. Many are calling ICC biased, but the apex cricket body has clarified that no reserve day for semi-final 2 was allocated due to the T20 World Cup 2024 Final scheduled for 29 June.
Fans of the Indian Cricket Team and the Barmy Army are wondering which team will qualify for the finals if the game is washed away. Here, we have answered that important question.
What Happens if Rain Washes Away the Semi-Finals of T20 World Cup 2024?
Reserve days are set aside for the semi-finals and final of the T20 World Cup, which are knockout games. However, the second semi-final won’t have a reserve day. Instead, it has been given an extra 240 minutes of time to manage the tournament schedule.
If bad weather stops the super over from finishing after a tie, or if the match is abandoned or ends with no result, the team that ranked first in their group in the second round will move forward to the final match. In this case, India will qualify for the T20 World Cup 2024 Final as they have topped their group, while England is second in their group.
When are the Semi-Finals of the T20 World Cup 2024?
After the Super 8 games, the T20 World Cup will move into the knockout stage. The first semi-final is scheduled for June 26 at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium in Trinidad and Tobago. The second semi-final will take place on June 27 at the Providence Stadium in Guyana.
When is the T20 World Cup 2024 Final?
The T20 World Cup 2024 Final is scheduled for June 29, just two days after the second semi-final. It’s worth noting that there is also a reserve day allocated for the final, on June 30. This allows for flexibility in case the match cannot be completed on the original scheduled day due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
