IND vs ENG: What Will Happen If India Vs England Semifinal Gets Washed Out Due To Rain?

India vs England semifinal: ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 has reached its business end. Final four teams set to play the semi-finals of the tournament have been decided. India, Pakistan, England and New Zealand are the four teams who will compete for the prestigious T20 title. Rain spoiled a few matches earlier in the tournament, resulting in no results, after which both teams shared a point each. Now the big question arises what will happen if rain hinders the T20 World Cup semi-final and final, and how the winner will be decided.
As per ICC rules, top-placed team from one group is supposed to take on second-placed team of the other group. India (table-toppers in Group-2) finished ahead of Pakistan (2nd-placed in Group-2). New Zealand (table-toppers in Group-1) finished ahead of England (2nd-placed in Group-1).
The first semi-final will be played between New Zealand and Pakistan in Sydney on November 9. If India defeats England in 2nd semi-final, they will face the winner of 1st semi-final (NZ vs PAK) at Melbourne on 13th November.
