One Day International (ODI) is a format of limited-overs cricket where each team faces a set number of overs, typically 50. The match is played in a single day, making it more accessible for fans and players alike. Teams aim to score the highest number of runs within their allotted overs, and the team with the most runs at the end wins the match. ODIs are governed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and are part of various tournaments, including the ICC Cricket World Cup. This format has gained popularity since its inception in the 1970s, blending the excitement of traditional cricket with a faster pace.
