England’s World Cup dream could be washed out by rains as the weather forecast predicts showers during their semifinal match against Australia in Birmingham at the ICC World Cup 2019 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/cricket/icc-cricket-world-cup-2019/] on Thursday. The hosts of the ICC World Cup 2019, England [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/icc-cricket-world-cup-2019-england/] will face Australia [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/icc-cricket-world-cup-2019-australia/] on Thursday for a place in the finals. However, rain could play a role in their semifinals match with a showery forecast for Birmingham on Thursday morning and also on the reserve day on Friday. ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-38-8.jpeg] This could turn out to be a piece of bad news for the English team as according to rules of ICC if no play is possible on the match day and the reserve day, the team with the higher position in the group stage advances. While Australia finished second after the league stages behind India, England finished in the third place. ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20190707_202905.jpg]Weather Report for Birmingham on Thursday The forecast for Birmingham on Thursday predicts light showers during the morning with the match scheduled to start at 10.30 am. However, the weather suggests a clearer sky later in the afternoon. If play could not be possible on Thursday, the forecast for the reserve day of Friday is worse with light showers throughout the day. The rules for the weather delays and interruptions in the semifinals and finals will be the same as that of the league matches of the ICC World Cup 2019. If there are any delays due to weather then the officials will try to complete the match is the scheduled day itself. ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20190707_202929.jpg]Weather Prediction for Birmingham on Friday However, they will also use more 120 minutes as extra time in the semifinals and finals in order to complete the match. The match can also be reduced to 20 overs per side in order to try to achieve the results. Eoin Morgan [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eoin_Morgan] and Co. will certainly hope for a 50-over match against their arch-rival Australia to continue their campaign for the first ICC Cricket World Cup title. 

England's World Cup dream could be washed out by rains during their semifinal
match against Australia in Birmingham at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.

ICC Cricket World Cup History
The ICC Cricket World Cup is a competition that takes place every four years.?The tournament is considered one of the world's most viewed sporting events. The first ever ICC Cricket World Cup took place in 1975 in England. Interestingly, the inaugural ICC Women's Cricket World Cup was held two years before the Men's, namely in 1973.
There are no restrictions for playing in the World Cup, but the top eight ranked teams gain automatic qualification, while the remaining seats are fought for in a qualifier tournament. A total of 20 teams have played in an ICC Cricket World Cup game, but the number of participants has dwindled over the years.
For the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, only 10 teams will participate, including two qualifiers. This is a far cry from 14 teams that took part in 2015.
The next ICC Cricket World Cup will be held in 2023 for men. In addition to that, the next ICC Women's Cricket World Cup will be held in 2021.
