Both teams are required to bat a minimum innings of 10 overs in the semi-finals and final as opposed to the limit of five placed in the rest of the championship. This is an important detail to note as rain has been a prominent player in this tournament. If either of the matches are washed out, the team that finished higher in their respective Super 8 groups (India and South Africa) will proceed to the final. 

The final will be held at Kensington Oval Stadium, Bridgetown, Barbados on June 29.
