One-day cricket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 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. 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 cricket is a version of the sport of cricket that is completed in one day, as distinct from Test cricket and first-class cricket which can take up to five days to complete. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/One-day_cricket   (2020 words)

One-day cricket leaves bowlers hapless In the current one-day cricket scenario, the dominance of batting is so rampant that perhaps the only job a bowler is left with is to entertain the crowd by being butchered at the hands of the batsmen. The one-day cricket format is not only calling for the extinction of pure bowlers but also threatening the mother status of Test cricket. The docile tracks, field restrictions, the bouncer rule, the ball changing acts have all reduced the bowlers to mere mercenaries who are asked to virtually commit suicide in the centre. in.rediff.com /cricket/2004/feb/10srinath.htm   (811 words)

DM's Explanation of Cricket - One-Day Cricket One-day cricket is a form of cricket which can be played in a single day.

Rethinking one day cricket 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. 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. www.prasanna.org /RethinkingOneDayGame.htm   (1772 words)

Cricinfo - Substitutes for one-day cricket? As part of its deliberations the committee also considered the specific case of the Kookaburra bat used by several international players and agreed that the status quo should remain wherein these bats can be used by all players pending a final decision from the MCC on their legality in relation to current regulations. The CC also recommended the introduction of soccer-style substitutes for international cricket wherein a player could be replaced at any stage of a match but would then be ruled out for the remainder of the match. The ICC Cricket Committee (CC) has produced a series of recommendations in relation to the playing of cricket that will now be considered by the ICC Chief Executives' Committee at its next meeting on June 24-25 at Lord's. content-usa.cricinfo.com /ci/content/story/209497.html   (1064 words)

Amiga reviews: International one day cricket Well then, have some sympathy for this poor reviewer, because International One Day Cricket is every bit as bad as I feared it might be — and I endured its brain numbing tedium just so you won’t have to as well.

Cricket is a slow game, at the best of times, but this game actually succeeds in making it seem even more boring. www.classicgaming.com /amigareviews/intoneda.htm   (612 words)

Is one-day cricket favourable to batsmen? In a one-day match, if a team sets a high target and has a good batting line-up, then it becomes difficult for the opposition to win without an equally good batting line-up.
