ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 - West Indies & USA

^^ I'm pissed off that this is going to be a wash-out on such an important match. Given the geographical location of Guyana & it's tropical climate why would you pick this venues of all when it is in it's wet season. Complete joke.

Boomer I think you'll find that if India win the trophy it will be declared the best world cup of all time by the Indian paymasters

^^ Spot on. It just irks me that India were given this potential prime-time Semi Final window, sure Australia may well have screwed that up if they had won the group, but still. Either way had England won their group or as it is finished 2nd 1.30am or 3.30pm don't constitute peak tv viewing hours in the UK.

Start Delayed

Maybe they finally will!

Pitch inspection at 4.15pm BST.
Apparently it's stopped raining.

But for how long?

Edit: Play due to start at 4.45pm BST .

How many over have to be played for it to become a game?
And what would happen if the game is tied?

I see that England have won the toss and elected to field

In the group & Super Eights stages 5 overs per side constitutes a result. In the Semi Final & I presume the Final a 10 over per side is required.
In this case a tie would see India win, the same as a no result, due to their superior Group stage record.
