A washout would be the worst-case scenario for the Indian cricket team. Here is how it would affect the table:
Points Split: If IND vs ZIM Super 8 match is abandoned, both India and Zimbabwe will receive 1 point each.
India's Standing: With only 1 point from two games, India would be unable to reach the 4-point mark required to comfortably challenge South Africa or West Indies.
NRR Stalemate: A "No Result" means India cannot fix their currently dismal -3.800 Net Run Rate, essentially handing the semi-final advantage to the Proteas and the Windies.
Given the spin-friendly nature of the Chepauk track, a shortened game (due to rain delays) might actually favor Zimbabwe’s disciplined bowling attack. For India to remain in control, they will need a full 20-over contest to maximize their margin of victory.
