How’s the Kensington Oval pitch?

While it is not a batter’s paradise, the pitch at the Kensington Oval has produced some of the highest-scoring matches at this tournament. Pace bowlers hold a slight edge over spinners in the wicket-taking charts and the final could see that trend being followed with both teams packing a mix of quality pacers and spinners.


Will the toss play a crucial role?

Teams winning the toss have opted to field first in five of the eight matches played in Bridgetown so far, but the results have been mixed.Rohit Sharma chose to bat first in India’s only game, against Afghanistan, at this venue and India emerged victorious by 47 runs.The final will be South Africa’s first game in Bridgetown


India vs South Africa: Head-to-head record


India hold a slight edge in both teams’ T20 meetings. The 2007 champions have won 14 matches compared with South Africa’s 11. Crucially, India have emerged on top in four of their five meetings in the T20 World Cup.


Their last meeting came in a three-match series in South Africa in December, which was tied 1-1 with one game washed out.


South Africa team news


South Africa’s two full-time spinners have proven a handful and have been ably backed by three front-line fast bowlers and the part-time spin of their captain Aiden Markram.


The Proteas are not expected to make any changes to their semifinal-winning side either


Predicted XI: Quinton de Kock (wicketkeeper), Reeza Hendricks, Aiden Markram (captain), David Miller, Heinrich Klaasen, Tristan Stubbs, Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Tabraiz Shamsi



What’s the weather forecast for Bridgetown, Barbados?


Weather has been an unwelcome guest at the T20 World Cup so far, with rains affecting several matches.


The weekend weather outlook for Bridgetown does not look great, but there’s hope that cricket fans will witness a full 20-overs-a-side match


Scattered showers, isolated thunderstorms, cloudy conditions and an eastwardly breeze are forecast for the venue.


A tropical storm will head towards the island on Saturday and the Barbados Meteorological Services has issued severe weather warnings.


What happens if there’s a rain delay in the final?


A maximum of 190 minutes of extra time have been allocated to the final. In addition, the ICC has announced Sunday, June 30 as the reserve day for the final.


Can the final end in ‘no result’?


Yes, if both teams do not get a chance to bat a minimum of 10 overs each, the match will end in “no result” according to the ICC’s playing conditions and rules for the tournament.


In such an event both teams will be declared joint winners.


What happens if the final ends in a tie?


In case of tied scores, the match will be decided by a super over. If that, too ends in a tie, subsequent super overs will be played until a winner emerges.

Thebowlers did a fantastic job to fight till the end.Rohit played a very good knock at the top of theorder. That's what we expect from Nortje, bowling150+ consistently and he along with Mustafizurdid a fine job. I thought of throwing at thebowler's head but David was on the wrong sideandI decided to throw to the keeper. Because ofthe surface here, I threw directly to the keeperinstead of bouncing. We are losing wickets inheaps and need to stop those. Axar is battingbrilliantly and needs to bat in top four soon."

The conversation we hadonthe bench was to get a few boundaries and luckythat we got some in the end. Obviously, it was funbut there was pressure as well. When the throwwent tOwards David's end, I turned around to seewhether he got there and when the throw was up,we knew we had made it. Change of bats becausemaybe he thought he wasnt getting it off themiddle of the bat."
