In the event of tied scores after both teams have faced their quota of overs, if weather conditions may permit then one over per side eliminator (super over) (see clause 7.3) will determine the winner.

7.2. The semi final and final
7.2.1. The semi final
If a Semi-Final is tied, the teams shall compete in a one over per side eliminator to determine which team progresses to the final (see clause 7.3).
If following a tie, weather conditions prevent the one over eliminator from being completed, or if the match is a no result, then the team that finished in the higher position in the Group stage shall proceed to the final.
7.2.2. The final
In the event of a tied final, the teams shall compete in a one over per side eliminator to determine which team is the winner. (See clause 7.3)
If weather conditions prevent the one over eliminator from being completed, or if the match is a no result, the teams will be declared joint winner.
7.3. One Over Per Side Eliminator
The following procedure will apply should the provision for a one over per side eliminator be adopted,
7.3.1. Subject to weather conditions the one over per side eliminator will take place on the scheduled day of the match at a time to be determined by the Match Referee. In normal circumstances it shall commence 10 minutes after the conclusion of the match.
7.3.2. The one over per side eliminator will take place on the pitch allocated for the match (the designated pitch) unless otherwise determined by the umpires in consultation with the ground authority.
7.3.3. Prior to the commencement of the one over per side eliminator each team elects three batsmen and one bowler. Only nominated players in the main match may participate in the one over per side eliminator. Should any player (including the batsmen and bowler) be unable to continue to participate in the one over per side eliminator due to injury, illness or other wholly acceptable reason, the relevant Laws and Playing Conditions (see clause 10.9 below) as they apply in the main match shall also apply in the one over per side eliminator
7.3.4. The nominated players will be given in writing to the Umpires.
7.3.5. The umpires shall stand at the same end as that in which they finished the match.
7.3.6. In both innings of the one over per side eliminator, the fielding side shall choose from which end to bowl.
7.3.7. Each team’s over is played with the same fielding restrictions as apply for a non-fielding restriction over in a normal T20 International match.
7.3.8. The team batting second in the match will bat first in the one over eliminator.
7.3.9. The same ball (or a ball of a similar age if the original ball is out of shape or lost) as used at the end of the team’s innings shall be used for the “extra” over.
7.3.10. The loss of two wickets in the over ends the team’s one over innings.
7.3.11. In the event of the teams having the same score after the one over per side eliminator has been completed, the team whose batsmen score the most number of boundaries from its two innings in both the main match and the one over per side eliminator shall be the winner.
7.3.12. If the number of boundaries hit by both teams is equal, the team whose batsmen scored more boundaries during its innings in the main match (ignoring the over per side eliminator) shall be the winner.
7.3.13. If still equal, a count-back from the final ball of the one over eliminator shall be conducted. The team with the higher scoring delivery shall be the winner. If a team loses two wickets during its over, then any unbowled deliveries will be counted as dot balls. Note that for this purpose, the runs scored from a delivery is defined as the total team runs scored since the completion of the previous legitimate ball, i.e including any runs resulting from wides, no ball or penalty runs.
