New Delhi. The wait for the ICC T20 World Cup final between India and South Africa is now about to end. The name of the winner of the tournament will be revealed tonight itself. In this match, everyone’s eyes will be on the South African team because it has made it to the final of an ICC tournament for the first time. The Indian team would like to convert the disappointment of defeat in many previous ICC finals into a trophy. There is a shadow of rain on this match and if the match is not held then how will the winner be decided. We give you the answer to this question.

The final of the ICC T20 World Cup will be played between India and South Africa tonight. The Indian team led by Rohit Sharma was disappointed by its defeat to Australia in the ODI World Cup final last year. Earlier, the same team had defeated it in the ICC Test Championship final. This time India defeated Australia in the Super 8 while England was knocked out in the semi-finals. Last time, this same team had knocked out India in the T20 World Cup semi-finals. If South Africa wins here, it will capture an ICC trophy for the first time.

If the match is cancelled then who will be the winner?
An additional 190 minutes have been kept in the ICC T20 World Cup final between India and South Africa. If this match is not played today, then it will be completed on the reserve day i.e. 30 June. ICC has kept a reserve day for the final match. If the match is not played on the reserve day due to rain, then the joint winner of the tournament will be declared. This means that both India and South Africa will be declared the winner of the T20 World Cup. In the 2002 ICC Champions Trophy, after the match could not be played on the reserve day, both Sri Lanka and India were declared joint winners of the trophy.
