Reminds me of the 2002 Champions Trophy. India and Sri Lanka shared the trophy after both the original and reserve days were washed out.
That's good but are they going to start again?
In 2002 we had SL batting 100 Overs while IND only batted a total of 10 overs.
From the playing conditions:
12.1.3 There shall be one reserve day allocated to the Final on which an incomplete match shall be continued from the scheduled day.
So they'll continue the match rather than start over.
that's great :D
They will try to finish on the main day though, including reducing the overs.

The link takes me to Shere Bangla National Stadium's profile page?
did you bother going down to the bottom of the page
Stupid me.
It would be pretty disappointing if the match doesn't happens today. Ind vs SA would be an amazing match.
Yeah, but no reserve day for the semis. So today, there's a massive chance of rain, in which case, India will go through, despite India and South Africa not even playing each other in this tournament.
It really is the silliest part of cricket; one cry of 'rain' and the whole game falls flat on its face. Duckworth/Lewis method is just a disgrace, but pushing one team forward based on a complete non-event is just downright laughable.
