Fans are excited for the knockout matches of the 2023 World Cup. There are only three matches left to know who will win the crown of the cricket world.
India entered the semi-finals as the first place in the points table without losing a single match and will play their semi-final match on November 15. The opponents are New Zealand, who reached the semi-finals as fourth place.
The first semi-final will be hosted at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, the venue for the 2011 World Cup final.
Australia and South Africa, who are second and third in the points table, will face each other in the second semi-final match on November 16. Eden Gardens, Kolkata will be the venue for the second semi-final.
The final is on Sunday, November 19.
The ICC has now clarified that if the weather poses a threat to the knock-out matches for any reason, a reserve day will be allowed.
When will Reserve Day be announced for the match?
A leaver’s day is allowed only if the umpires judge that there is no possibility of the match being held on the previously fixed day. Before this the umpires will check everything properly. The possibility of reducing the match to 20 overs will also be considered. Allow a reserve day for the match only if it is certain that none of this will happen.
There was a reserve day for the India vs New Zealand match in the 2019 World Cup.
What if the reserve day also rains?
If the reserve day is also rained out, the team at the top of the points table can jump ahead.
India will face South Africa in the final if the reserve day of the two semi-final matches is washed out.
Is reserve day allowed for finals too?
A reserve day has also been allowed for the final match to be held on November 15 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Gujarat. A reserve day will be allowed if the match cannot be played due to bad weather.
What if the reserve day of the final match is also cancelled?
Both the teams that entered the finals will be declared joint champions.
