Which teams will benefit if the semi-finals are cancelled due to rain? Know the equation

The final phase of the T20 World Cup is now underway. Both semi-final matches will be played on June 27. The first semi-final will be played between South Africa and Afghanistan, while in the second semi-final India will face England. The question in the minds of the fans regarding these two semi-final matches is that if the semi-final is cancelled due to rain, then which teams will benefit and which teams will go to the final.

Who will benefit if it rains?

The first semi-final match of the World Cup will be played between South Africa and Afghanistan at 6 am Indian time in Brian Lara Stadium, Trinidad. Currently, South Africa is in first place and Afghanistan is in second place in Group-2. Now the big question is that if the match is cancelled due to rain, then which of these two teams will be able to make it to the final.

According to ICC rules, if it rains during the semi-final match and the match is cancelled, then the top team of its group will qualify for the final. While the team that is second in the group will be out of the World Cup. The same situation applies to the match between India and England. If the semi-final is cancelled due to rain, then Team India will directly reach the final, while England will be out of the World Cup.
