But the result of a match with less than this number of overs is not declared. But it is necessary to have at least 10 overs in the T20 World Cup semi-final and final match. If even a 10-over match could not be played on the first day, then the match will be played on the second day i.e. on the reserve day. Not only this, if the match starts on the first day and then the match cannot be played and goes on the second day, then the match will start from where it stopped on the first day. An additional time of 190 minutes has also been reserved for the final, that is, the match can go on for three hours and 10 minutes extra.
