It is pertinent to mention that ICC has already changed the timings of the final toss. It was scheduled for 12:30 PM PST. According to the new timings, the toss will happen eight minutes earlier i.e. 12:22 PM PST.

The schedule was changed because of a concert before the final. Moreover, a grand fireworks show is expected to take place following the match.
