IND vs ENG semifinal 2 of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 is just a few hours away from now. The match between the two heavyweights of the game will take place on Thursday (27th June) at the Providence Stadium in Guyana.
The excitement for the IND vs ENG game is building up and both the teams have been magnificent so far in the tournament. The two teams have done their preparations right and it’s time for the showdown. The winner will take on Aiden Markram-led South Africa in the final.
While the excitement for the IND vs ENG game is high, the rain threat is also looming over the game. The weather forecast for the game isn’t great and there are high chances for the rain. However, ICC has kept additional time for the game and it can be extended for a while.
With rain around the corner, there have been various speculations about when will be the cut-off time for the game. As per the reports in ESPNCricinfo, it is learned that no overs will be lost till 12:10 AM (IST) and if the conditions don’t permit us to play till this then only after that we will start losing overs.
The reports also claimed that the start of a 10-over match should happen at 1.44 am IST for the Semi-Final between India vs England. Therefore there are high chances that we might have a game and both the teams would be keen to play as well.
However, in case of a complete whitewash, India will move to the final. This is because they have more points than England. They also finished at the top of the points table. On the other hand, the defending champions finished second in their group stage.
