What happens to the IPL final math if it rains?
Accoding to the official rules of IPL 2023, if any of the Final, the Eliminator, Qualifier 1 or Qualifier 2 matches are tied, or there is no result, the following shall apply:
- ⦿
The relevant teams shall compete in a Super Over and if necessary further Super Overs to determine which team is the winner of the match in question - ⦿
The deadline to play a 20-over match is 9.35 PM IST. The deadline to start a 5-over-per-side game is 11.56 PM. If both are not possible, a Super Over is to be started by 12.06 AM. - ⦿
If the match starts today and cannot be completed, it will start tomorrow from the point where it stopped.
Is there a Reserve Day for the IPL 2023 final?
If the rain does not permit a Super Over tonight, a reserve day is in place for the IPL 2023 final on Monday.
What happens if conditions do not permit for a Super Over?
- ⦿
If conditions do not permit a Super Over, or subsequent Super Overs within the time available to determine the winner, then the team which, at the end of the relevant regular Season, finished in the higher position in the League table will be deemed the winner of the relevant play-off .
This means that, in this match, if conditions do not permit any Super Over on both days, then the Gujarat Titans will win the title by virtue of finishing higher in the table.
