India vs England Weather Update: Rain Forecast for Mumbai T20 World Cup Semi-Final

India and England are set to face off in the second semi-final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday, with the winner advancing to the final against New Zealand on March 8 in Ahmedabad.

India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, secured their place in the last four after defeating West Indies in the Super 8 stage, while England, captained by Harry Brook, progressed with three wins from three matches in their group.

No rain forecast for India vs England

Weather conditions in Mumbai are expected to remain clear for the high-stakes clash, with forecasts indicating a zero percent probability of rain.

Fans can expect uninterrupted cricket under clear skies at Wankhede, ensuring that the semi-final is unlikely to face any weather-related disruptions.

Temperature and humidity during the match

The temperature around toss time is expected to hover between 33°C and 34°C before gradually dropping as the evening progresses.

By the end of the match, temperatures could dip to around 30°C. Humidity levels are predicted to remain relatively comfortable at around 41 percent.

Light winds from the north, ranging between 15 and 30 km/h, may offer fast bowlers slight assistance early in the game, though overall conditions are expected to favour batting.

What happens if rain interrupts play?

Although rain is not expected, the ICC has several contingencies in place for knockout matches.

Match officials can extend play by up to 90 minutes on the scheduled day in an attempt to complete the game. A reserve day has also been scheduled for March 6.

If play begins but is interrupted, the match will resume from the same point on the reserve day.

For a valid result in this knockout match, both teams must bat for at least 10 overs each.

Who qualifies if India vs England is washed out?

If rain prevents the minimum overs from being completed even after the reserve day, the match will be abandoned.

Under ICC rules, the team that finished higher in the Super 8 standings would advance to the final.

In that scenario, England would progress, as they topped Super 8 Group 2 with three wins, while India finished second in Super 8 Group 1 with two victories.

With clear skies predicted and a place in the final on the line, all signs point to a full evening of high-stakes cricket at a packed Wankhede Stadium.
