🏏 1. Overs & Bowling Limits
In limited-overs formats:
-
ODI: 50 overs per side

T20: 20 overs per side

Each over has 6 legal deliveries.

Bowlers have a limit:

In T20s: max 4 overs per bowler
🧤 2. Dismissal Rules
A batter can be out in several ways, but the most common are:
-
Bowled – the ball hits the stumps.
-
Caught – a fielder catches the ball before it touches the ground.
-
LBW (Leg Before Wicket) – if the ball would’ve hit the stumps but hits the batter’s leg (with strict conditions).
-
Run Out – the batter doesn’t make it to the crease before the fielders break the stumps.
