 "India vs England semifinal date and time")
In the second semifinal of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, India will face defending champions England at Providence Stadium, Guyana on June 27 at 8 p.m. IST.
The India vs England semifinal will be a rematch of the 2022 T20 World Cup semis, when England registered a 10-wicket win while chasing a 169-run target at the Adelaide Oval on November 10, 2022.
The law of averages is against India as they are the only team, other than South Africa, who have not lost a single match so far in the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.

This means the India vs England match can go beyond midnight and might extend to early Friday morning according to Indian Standard Time (IST).
So, what happens if the rain doesn't stop on June 27 and the India vs England semifinal gets washed out?

What to expect from the Guyana pitch?
The 22-yard strip at Guyana has been regarded as a spin-friendly wicket over the years. In the Afghanistan vs New Zealand match, the Afghans, who are good players of spin, posted a big total and then spun a web around the Kiwis to notch up an 84-run win.
If the Guyana pitch supports spinners, it will be good news for Rohit Sharma's men, who have four spinners in their squad. Three spinners – Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, and Kuldeep Yadav – have been part of India's playing XI since the Caribbean leg of the competition.
