What’s The Deal With 5-Over Matches?
If the rain doesn’t stop, we might see a super-exciting 5-over battle! But how do these 5-over games work?
Crazy Rain Rules:
- Matches start at 7:30 PM, with the toss at 7 PM.
- If it rains, and the first team finishes batting, they try to complete the match with fewer overs using the DLS method.
- Roughly, they aim to reduce overs by 14.11 per hour.
- The second team needs to bat for at least 5 overs.
- If it’s past 10:56 PM, they might play a 5-over match from each side.
- To complete the match due to rain, they get an extra 1-hour window (extension window) till 12 AM.
- If the rain continues and the match seems impossible, it gets canceled, and both teams get 1 point each.
- Normally, matches should finish within 3 hours and 20 minutes, including breaks.
