Will There Be A Reserve day For India vs South Africa Women’s World Cup Final?

India and South Africa will clash in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 final at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai on Sunday, November 2. Both teams are aiming for their maiden World Cup title, ensuring a new champion will be crowned. If rain affects play and the final cannot be completed, the ICC has scheduled November 3 as the reserve day for the grand finale.

Even though a reserve day is available, ICC regulations specify that all possible efforts will be made to conclude the game on the scheduled day itself. In case of weather interruptions, the match may be shortened, but a minimum of 20 overs per side must be bowled to determine a result.

If the final remains incomplete on Sunday, it will resume on Monday from the same point where play was halted. However, if no result is possible even on the reserve day, both India and South Africa will share the trophy. In the event of a tie, a Super Over will be used to decide the ultimate winner.
