Matthew Mott has said the lack of a reserve day for England’s T20 World Cup semi-final against India on Thursday would not happen in an ideal world and called on the International Cricket Council to remedy the issue for further tournaments.
While the first semi-final between South Africa and Afghanistan in Trinidad on Wednesday has a reserve day set aside in the event of rain, the second in Guyana – a day game during what is historically the country’s wettest month on average – has only 250 minutes of additional time to ensure a result.
