Chennai : Now let’s see what the IPL rules say about whether there is a reserve day for a playoff match in the IPL series.
This year’s IPL series has completed all the league matches and now the play off round is about to begin. The first match of this playoff round will be Qualifier-1 match between Kolkata and Hyderabad today. Let’s see if there is a reserve day if the play-off round of this year’s highly anticipated IPL series is canceled due to rain.
It can be said that we cannot match the finals of last year’s IPL series. It is noteworthy that in the final match between the Gujarat team and the Chennai team, 3 days of overs were shortened due to rain interruption and a match was held. Similarly, if you ask if there will be a reserve day this year too, yes, there will be.
But the good thing is that the IPL rule states that all the 4 matches to be held in the play-off round this year will have a reserve day this time. Last time in the IPL series they reserved the reserve day only for the final match. If a match is held today and the match is interrupted by rain, the match can be held on the next day as a reserve day.
It is announced that this reserve day is for every play off match. At the same time, if the match is not held due to rain on the reserve day, the trophy will be awarded to the team which is ahead in the points table.
Also, it is noteworthy that the match will be a draw but the super over will be held and the winning team will be declared as the winner. In case of a tie in the super over and the result of the match will not be known beyond the specified time, it is noted that in the super over it will be a draw but the team that is ahead in the points list will be declared the winner.
