Contrary to the timings throughout the tournament till now, Adelaide will host the first morning match (10:30 AM start according to local time) of this World Cup. A South Africa-Netherlands clash in the morning will be followed by a Pakistan-Bangladesh T20I in the afternoon (02:30 PM start according to local time).
A primary reason behind the same is that Perth (major time difference due to location in Western Australia) is not hosting any match on a triple-header day. As a result, the first two matches will be early starts contrary to the trend thus far.
SA vs NED rain chances
Although no team would ever want its match to get washed out due to rain, the above mentioned four teams would be strictly against it due to it being the last match of this round for each one of them.
While South Africa are in serious contention of qualifying for the semi-finals, both Pakistan and Bangladesh have a minimal outside chance. Therefore, all these teams would be wanting to take part in a full-fledged 40-over contest to execute to the best of their abilities what lies in their hands.
