ICC shares rules for knockout games in case of rain delay during upcoming T20 World Cup
ICC announces venues for Caribbean leg of 2024 T20 World Cup but no Jamaica
The T20 World Cup scheduled to be played from June 1 in the USA and West Indies will have reserve days for the semi-final and the final of the tournament. The knockout games will also have a bigger cut-off of 10 overs in the second innings to constitute a game as full and declare a winner.
In general, five overs in second innings is the cut-off in a T20I to constitute as a full game in case of rain delay or other interruptions. The five-over rule, however, is still intact for the group stage of the tournament.
In addition to it, stop clock will become a permanent fixture in white-ball games, starting with the T20 World Cup. The stop clock was tried in the international games from December 2023 and has been approved by the ICC as a permanent rule. According to the rule, the fielding side has to start the next over within 60 seconds of the completion of the previous over.

Failing to comply with the stop clock will attract warning from the on-field umpires for first two instances and a penalty thereafter. The fielding side will be penalised with five-run per instance after the two initial warnings of breaking the stop-clock rule.
There are a few exceptions to the rule provided by the ICC which are as follows:
