Limited overs cricket
Limited overs cricket is a format of the game where each team is restricted to a specific number of overs, usually 20 (Twenty20) or 50 (One Day Internationals). This means that matches are completed in a single day, making them faster-paced and generally more exciting than traditional longer formats. Each team bats and tries to score runs while the other bowls and fields to limit those runs. The team with the highest score at the end of the allocated overs wins. This format emphasizes aggressive batting and strategic play, appealing to a broad audience and fostering competitive spirit.
