India (IND) will be facing England (ENG) in the Semi-Final 2 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The match will take place at the Guyana National Stadium on June 27 at 08:00 PM IST. India comes into this match with momentum, having beaten Australia by 24 runs in their last outing, with Rohit Sharma scoring 141 fantasy points. England, on the other hand, dominated the USA by 10 wickets, with Chris Jordan being the top fantasy performer with 150 points.
A serious rain threat looms over the India vs. England semifinal. Persistent showers over the last few days have raised concerns about the match being potentially abandoned. The temperature is expected to be around 28°C with 77% humidity and 1.87 m/s winds. Light rain is expected, which may affect playing conditions. AccuWeather predicts an 88% chance of rain and an 18% chance of thunderstorms, posing a significant risk to the game.
If rain completely washes out the match without a single ball being bowled, India will progress to the final based on their superior performance in the Super Eight stage, where they topped Group 1. Unlike the first semifinal, there is no reserve day for this match. However, an additional 250 minutes can be utilized on Thursday to extend playing hours. Each innings in the semifinal and final must witness 10 overs of action for a result.
