South Africa will be taking on India in the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados. These two teams have reached the grand finale of the tournament after staying undefeated for the past month, but there can be only one winner at the end of it all.
The road to the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 for South Africa had some tough moments, wherein they had to dig deep to get over the line. The Proteas have earned eight wins in the tournament thus far under Aiden Markram’s captaincy, but excluding the semifinal victory, all their matches have been keenly contested affairs, which ended up going down to the wire.
For India, their march to the final has been nothing short of extraordinary, winning seven matches, while one ended up being a washout. The toughest assignment for the Indian cricket team under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy was against Pakistan, which they managed to get over the line in a last-over thriller.
Talking about the weather for the T20 World Cup 2024 Final at the Kensington Oval, it is expected to stay cloudy, windy, and humid in the morning and afternoon hours according to the listings on AccuWeather. The probability of precipitation on Saturday, June 29, stands at 46% and the probability of thunderstorms stands at 28%.
During the grand finale in Bridgetown, Barbados, there will be wind gusts of around 46 km/h during the day, which could help in blowing away thundery rain just 36 hours prior to the Beryl tropical storm making landfall on Sunday, June 30. Therefore, the fans might have to endure a few rain interruptions when South Africa and India play at the Kensington Oval.
