Limited overs cricket
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.
In some tied limited-overs games, a Super Over is played, wherein each team bats for a one-over innings with two wickets in hand.
This is to prevent a side playing two top-class bowlers with extremely good stamina who can bowl throughout their opponents' innings.
