The following procedure will apply should the provision for a one over per side eliminator be adopted in any match: Subject to weather conditions the one over per side eliminator will take place at a time to be determined by the umpires. In normal circumstances it shall commence 10 minutes after the conclusion of the match. 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.

In the event of the teams having the same score after the one over per side eliminator has been completed, if the original match was a tie under the D/L method, clause 10.3.13 immediately applies. Otherwise, the team whose batsmen hit the most number of
