The final of the Women’s ODI World Cup was to start today between India and South Africa at 3 pm, but it did not start on time due to heavy rain in Navi Mumbai. The time was extended to 3:30, but it started raining again. Fans are disappointed, worried as to what will happen if the match does not take place? Will both of them be declared winners or something else, let us explain the ICC rules to you.
The title match between Indian women’s cricket team vs South Africa women’s cricket team is fixed at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. It was to start today (2nd November) at 3 pm, the toss was to take place at 2:30 pm but it rained here this morning too. It drizzled even before the match. The time of the match was extended, but it could not start even at 3:30.
What will happen if the World Cup final does not happen today?
First of all, let us tell you that a reserve day has been kept for the Women’s ODI World Cup, that is, if the match is not completed today then it will be played on the reserve day. Monday, November 3 is the reserve day of the World Cup. But the first effort will be to get the match done today.
An additional time of 2 hours is available for the final. The cut-off time for 20-20 overs matches is 9:08 pm. If it rains, or the field remains wet and the match does not start till the cut-off time, then it will be played on the reserve day.
Chance of rain in Navi Mumbai on Monday also
The big thing is that there is a possibility of rain in Navi Mumbai even on the Reserve Day. Even on this day, there is a possibility of rain in the city throughout the day. Then if the match is not held even on the reserve day, then how will the winning team be decided?
If the match is not held even on the reserve day, then who will get the trophy?
If the match does not take place even on the reserve day, both the teams will be jointly declared winners. That means the Indian women’s team and the South African women’s team will share the trophy.
