What happens if hard rain will affect the India vs England match?

In the event that the India vs England semi-final match of the T20 World Cup is affected by rain:

1. Additional Time Allocated: There are 250 minutes of additional time allocated to complete each semi-final match. For the India vs England match, this time will be utilized on the scheduled day itself, as there is no reserve day available.

2. Minimum Overs Requirement: A minimum of 10 overs must be bowled to the team batting second for the match to produce a result, unless a result is achieved earlier. This rule ensures that a match is fair and competitive despite potential interruptions.

3. Super 8 Group Performance: If the match ends in a tie and the weather prevents the Super Over from being completed, or if the match is abandoned without a result due to weather conditions, the team that finished first in their Super 8 Group during the Second Round will progress to the final.

4. Implication for India: Since India finished first in their Super 8 Group, if the India vs England semi-final match cannot produce a result due to rain or other reasons preventing the completion of the minimum overs, India will automatically move on to the T20 World Cup final.

5. No Reserve Day: Unlike the first semi-final, which had a reserve day allocated for completing the match if necessary, the second semi-final does not have this luxury. Therefore, all efforts will be made to complete the match on the scheduled day itself using the allocated additional time.

These regulations ensure that there is a fair process in place to determine which team advances to the final in case of weather-related disruptions during the semi-final stage of the tournament.
