T20 World Cup 2024, IND vs ENG weather report: Why rain could affect England's chances of title defence?

INDIA vs ENGLAND Weather Report:The T20 World Cup 2024 will reach its conclusion on the weekend as four teams will scramble for the title, including former and current winners. While Afghanistan will take guard in their maiden World Cup semifinal against South Africa, eyes will be on India and England as they face each other for a place in the final. However, England’s chances could already be put to the sword as rain could be a decisive factor in the second semifinal in Guyana.

What is the weather report for India vs England?

The weather forecast for Thursday (June 27) in Guyana is currently showing "thunder showers changing to heavy showers by late morning", with a 60 per cent chance of rain predicted. This means England’s chances of World Cup qualification will be at the mercy of rain which has already played a crucial role in eliminating heavyweight teams like Sri Lanka and Pakistan. The defending champions almost suffered the same fate had their rain-affected contest against Namibia got washed out.

What are the semifinal schedule rules?

While a reserve day will be in use for the Afghanistan vs South Africa contest in the first semifinal, there will be no such rule for the second semis with the match permitted an extra 250 minutes in case there is a rain delay.
