Each of the six teams in the aforementioned group have played three ‘Super 12’ matches each, and with none of them having sealed their semi-final berth as yet, the remaining two matches for the top-5 teams in the group are as crucial as ever.

Apart from the two aforementioned matches, the Adelaide Oval will host another couple of ‘Super 12 Group 2’ matches on November 6, and two ‘Super 12 Group 1’ matches prior to them as well, on November 4.
The venue will finally also host the second semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022, scheduled to take place on November 10.
Adelaide Oval dimensions
Alike most of the Cricket Grounds in the whole of Australia, the Adelaide Oval in South Australia too, boasts of bigger boundary dimensions.
Akin the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), which has the biggest boundary size Down Under, the Adelaide Oval too has a huge straight boundary length to the tune of 80 meters.
Square of the wicket, the boundary dimensions reduce a bit, but still reads 62-63 meters on either side of the wicket.
As for the Cricketing action scheduled to take place at this venue tomorrow, both the matches are highly likely to be affected by rain, and an abandoned contest would be the last thing teams and the fans would want at this stage of the World Cup.
