What if it rains in the remaining three matches? Actually, the ICC has kept a reserve day for the semi-finals and final matches. If the match is not completed on the first day, then the next day the match will start from there.

If a team scored 80 runs for two wickets in the first 11 overs and the match could not be played on that day due to rain, then the same team would start playing the next day with the same score. If it rains on the second day as well and the match is not completed, the team tops in Super-12 will advance to the final. This will benefit New Zealand in the first semi-final and India in the second. In this way, India and New Zealand will clash in the final.
