What Happens If Rain Spoils IPL 2024 Playoffs? Reserve Day for IPL 2024 Final? All You Need To Know
The 17th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is about to end. The playoffs week has started. Here are the top four teams: Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Rajasthan Royals, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The Qualifier 1 will be played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad on 21st May 2024, and the Eliminator will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru on 22nd May 2024. Both matches will be played at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. With the playoffs just around the corner, there’s a chance that rain could spoil the party. But what happens if that’s the case?
Reserve Days for IPL Playoffs
The good news is that this year IPL has a plan in place for rain-affected matches. A reserve day has been designated for all four playoff matches. This means that if a match is rained out on the scheduled day, it will be played on the reserve day.
What Happens If It Rains on Both Days?
If a match is rained out on both the original day and the reserve day, the team’s position on the points table will determine the winner. The team that finishes higher in the points table will advance to the next round or win the trophy, as the case may be.
Reserve Day for IPL 2024 Final
The final and qualifier 2 will be played at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. There is also a reserve day for the IPL final. So, if the final match is rained out on the scheduled day, it will be played on the reserve day.
While rain can definitely disrupt the IPL playoffs, the fact that there are reserve days in place helps to ensure that the tournament can be completed as planned. So, cricket fans can rest assured that they will still get to see their favorite teams battle it out for the IPL trophy, even if there is a bit of rain along the way.
