Quote:The World Cup will be shared if the final at the MCG on March 29 is tied - or washed out - after it was decided not to use Super Overs during the knockout phase of the tournament in Australia and New Zealand.

The 2011 tournament had the provision for one-over eliminators in the event of tied knockout matches, but this time group position will be the deciding factor if teams cannot be separated on the day in either the quarters or semis - a criteria which was needed in the famous 1999 semi-final when Australia tied with South Africa at Edgbaston and progressed by virtue of their higher Super Six position.

However, should the scores be level in the final, two captains will get their hands on the trophy. There will be reserve days available from the quarter-finals onwards in the event of poor weather.

Yeah, why not a reserved day? At least the team with the best skills and temperament would win then.
