Anyone know what happens if its a washout or if there is no result? Would India simply go through down to results so far? Would be a total farce if so. Thanks in advance.

It is all at the bottom there.

This is the specific answer you seek:

Semi Final

If a Semi-Final is tied, the teams shall compete in a Super Over to determine which team progresses to the Final. Refer attached Appendix 7. If following a tie, weather conditions prevent the Super Over from being completed, or if the match is a no result or abandoned, then the team which finished first in its Second Round group shall progress to the Final.

Apparently India wanted a curry eating contest to decide who goes through in the event of a washout.  Australia wanted a boomerang throwing contest.  When England were asked for their view they said the team with the highest incidence of stress related illness should go through.

They couldn't agree so we got this nonsense that the team with the better performance in the competition goes through.
