One Day Internationals

This is the shorter version of the sport.
One-day cricket began between English county teams in the 1960s. The first one-day international was played in Melbourne in 1971.
One Day Internationals has become the popular version of the game because of the thrill involved. The aggressive batting entertains the spectators and often the match is not decided until the last ball is bowled.
One Day Internationals are also held under lights. These are called Day Night Matches.
