  Limited overs cricket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In a one-day cricket match, each team bats only once, and each innings is limited to a set number of overs, usually fifty in a One-day International and between forty and sixty in a List A domestic one-day match.
One-day cricket is popular with spectators as it can encourage aggressive, risky, entertaining batting, often results in cliffhanger endings, and ensures that a spectator can watch an entire match without committing to five days of continuous attendance.
One-day International matches are usually played in brightly coloured clothing (leading some to give it the unflattering nickname pyjama cricket), and often in a "day-night" format where the first innings of the day occurs in the afternoon and the second occurs under stadium lights.

 DesiJournal.com - Rethinking one day cricket
Twenty20 may well be the rage these days but two simple changes to the existing laws of cricket hold tremendous potential to bring pizzazz back into one day internationals and re-energize a format that has become a victim of its own success.
The other, and perhaps more pertinent, quibble against one day cricket is the diminution in the average level of skills and the unabated proliferation of bits and pieces cricketers.
The other problem with the one-day game is its regimented three-act structure described earlier, and fielding restrictions during the first 15 overs seem to be at the root of the problem.

 One-day International - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A One-day International (ODI) cricket match is a one-day cricket match played over 50 overs per side between two international teams each representing a particular country.
Unlike its counterpart, Test cricket, which is played over 5 days and has a history going back to the 19th century, the international one-day game is a comparatively modern development.

Not only was the country's skipper Marvan Atapattu honoured by being named captain of the International Cricket Council (ICC) official World One-day International team of the year, but three other Sri Lankan cricketers also figured prominently, thus boosting the country's reputation further as one of the leading cricket nations in the world.
Notwithstanding the overload of one-day internationals currently being played by the cricket nations, the ICC on top of it all had to organise a series of matches, thus taxing the players even more.

 Rethinking one day cricket   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
It was heartening to note that the new rules followed the same themes that I had suggested in my article below, but I'm afraid the rule changes were far too conservative to be truly meaningful, and the lack of conviction leaves the changes open to ridicule.
The format has been strategized to death, say the first camp of naysayers, and is becoming increasingly predictable – slam bang in the first 15 overs, singles and consolidation in the middle overs (when fielding captains oblige by setting fields deep and routinely give easy runs away), and then another flurry in the end.
The bowlers follow a similar formula – wicket-taking bowlers at the start (at least from one end), the bits and pieces men who most often fill the 4 th and 5 th bowling slots in the middle (with the odd burst from a front-line bowler), and then the specialist death-men in the end.

It proved an ideal sport for gambling because of the many variables within the game (spread betting is nothing new!) and aristocrats like the Duke of Richmond, grandson of Charles II, brought respectability and prosperity to the game, especially through the large sums wagered on matches.
