Rain Rules and Reserve Day Contingency
While the current forecast predicts a full 40-over contest, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has standard weather contingencies in place. Should unseasonal rain intervene, an additional 120 minutes have been allocated on match day to help force a result. To constitute an official knockout match, both teams must bat for a minimum of 10 overs.
If the match cannot be completed on Sunday, a reserve day is scheduled for Monday, 9 March. Play would resume from the exact point it was halted. In the highly unlikely event that the reserve day is also washed out, India and New Zealand would be declared joint winners of the tournament.
