Rain Hits Navi Mumbai As IndiaSouth Africa Women’s World Cup Final Faces Likely Toss Delay

Match officials have a reserve day in place with DLS ready for a shortened contest under an IMD yellow alert.

Overview

  • Heavy showers were reported at DY Patil Stadium with covers on and live updates indicating the toss and start are likely to be delayed.
  • Forecasts from AccuWeather point to the highest rain risk between roughly 4 PM and 7 PM local time, aligning with the early-middle phase of play.
  • ICC playing conditions provide a reserve day on Monday, and any incomplete final must continue from the point it stopped rather than restarting.
  • A minimum of 20 overs per side is needed for a result on the scheduled day, with the Duckworth–Lewis–Stern method to be used if overs are reduced.
  • The outcome if both the scheduled day and reserve day are washed out remains unclear in media reports, which conflict between joint winners and points-table precedence.
