However, unlike the first semifinal in Trinidad, there is no reserve day scheduled for the second semifinal; but there is a provision of 250 minutes of additional time allocated to try and achieve a result if rain interrupts play.
In case rain completely washes out the match without a single ball being bowled or no result is possible even after the additional allocated time, India will progress to the final on the basis of their superior performance in the ‘Super 8s’ stage, where they topped Group 1 by winning all three matches — against Australia, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
England had finished second in Group 1, which was topped by South Africa. With Afghanistan knocking Bangladesh and Australia out of the T20 World Cup, Rashid Khan‘s men will take on South Africa in the first semifinal.
