India vs England T20 World Cup Semi-final May Not Happen. This Team Will Advance In Such A Case
NDTV
While the first semi-final will begin at 6 AM IST, India's match against England will be played from 8 PM IST in Guyana.
The semi-final spots for the ongoing T20 World Cup are all locked up. While India and England will face off in a repeat of last edition's semi-final, where the latter won by 10 wickets in Adelaide, South Africa will take on Afghanistan in the other match. Afghanistan will make their T20 World Cup semi-finals debut in the first semi-final in Trinidad. While the first semi-final will begin at 6 AM IST, India's match against England will be played from 8 PM IST in Guyana. Both matches will be played on Thursday (IST).
As far as the playing conditions are concerned, there are different rules for the semi-finals and finals.
While there is a reserve day in place for the first semi-final between South Africa and Afghanistan, the same is not the case for the India-England humdinger.
Why India vs England semi-final doesn't have a reserve day?
It was pre-decided that India's semi-final will be played in Guyana. But, there will be no reserve day for the second semi-final with just a day gap between the match in Guyana and the final in Barbados.
