28-458: The Mandela Trophy was a one-day International cricket tournament which took place from 2 December 1994 to 12 January 1995. The tournament was hosted by South Africa , who were one of the four sides competing, with the others being New Zealand , Pakistan and Sri Lanka . Each side played each other twice before the two with the most points took part in a best of three finals series. The finals were contested between Pakistan and South Africa with

56-406: A result of disputes and poor performances, Kenya's ODI status was reduced to temporary in 2005, meaning that it had to perform well at World Cup Qualifiers to keep ODI status. Kenya lost ODI status after finishing in fifth place at the 2014 Cricket World Cup Qualifier event. The ICC can also grant special ODI status to all matches within certain high-profile tournaments, with the result being that

84-527: A white ball became more commonplace over time, and the use of white flannels and a red ball in ODIs ended in 2001. The ICC , international cricket's governing body, maintains the ICC ODI Rankings for teams (see table on the right), batsmen, bowlers and all-rounders.

112-446: Is a format of Cricket , played between two teams with international status, in which each team faces a fixed number of fifty overs , with the game lasting up to 7 hours. The Cricket World Cup , generally held every four years, is played in this format. They are major matches and considered the highest standard of List A , limited-overs competition. The international one-day game is a late-twentieth-century development. The first ODI

140-514: The 1992 Cricket World Cup , and the controversial effect of its application during the England v South Africa semi-final directly led to the development of the current, Duckworth–Lewis–Stern , method. The Average Run Rate method was replaced in 1991 by the Most Productive Overs method, having been developed by Australia after the third 1989 Australian Tri-Series final between Australia and

168-540: The Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method (DLS, formerly known as the Duckworth–Lewis method), which is a method with statistical approach. It takes into consideration the fact that the wickets in hand plays a crucial role in pacing the run-rate and that a team with more wickets in hand can play way more aggressively than the team with fewer wickets in hand. When insufficient overs are played (usually 20 overs) to apply

196-610: The ICC World Cup Qualifier , which is the final event of the ICC World Cricket League . In 2019, ICC increased the number of teams holding Temporary ODI status to eight. The following eight teams currently have this status (the dates listed in brackets are of their first ODI match after gaining temporary ODI status): Additionally, eight teams have previously held this temporary ODI status before either being promoted to Test Status or relegated after under-performing at

224-458: The DLS, a match is declared no result. Important one-day matches particularly in the latter stages of major tournaments, may have two days set aside, such that a result can be achieved on the "reserve day" if the first day is washed out—either by playing a new game, or by resuming the match which was rain-interrupted. Because the game uses a white ball instead of the red ball used in first-class cricket ,

252-609: The Supersub was of far more benefit to the side that won the toss, unbalancing the game. Several international captains reached "gentleman's agreements" to discontinue this rule late in 2005. They continued to name Supersubs, as required but they did not field them by simply using them as a normal 12th man. On 15 February 2006, the ICC announced their intention to discontinue the Supersub rule on 21 March 2006. Two balls were trialed in ODI for two years but it

280-554: The West Indies. Chasing Australia's 226/4 off 38 overs, the West Indies initially needed 180 off 31.2 overs (a required RR of 5.74) when rain stopped play for 85 minutes. Under the average run-rate method, the revised target was 108, meaning the West Indies needed 61 off the 11.2 overs that remained (a required RR of 5.38). After the West Indies won the match (and the competition) by eight wickets with 4.4 overs remaining, Australian fans loudly booed this unsatisfactory conclusion, which

308-514: The World Cup Qualifier: The ICC occasionally granted associate members permanent ODI status without granting them full membership and Test status. This was originally introduced to allow the best associate members to gain regular experience in internationals before making the step up to full membership. First Bangladesh and then Kenya received this status. Bangladesh have since made the step up to Test status and full membership; but as

336-449: The ball can become discolored and hard to see as the innings progresses, so the ICC has used various rules to help keep the ball playable. Most recently, ICC has made the use of two new balls (one from each end), the same strategy that was used in the 1992 and 1996 World Cups so that each ball is used for only 25 overs. Previously, in October 2007, the ICC sanctioned that after the 34th over,

364-410: The ball would be replaced with a cleaned previously used ball. Before October 2007 (except 1992 and 1996 World Cups), only one ball would be used during an innings of an ODI and it was up to the umpire to decide whether to change the ball. The bowling side is subjected to fielding restrictions during an ODI, in order to prevent teams from setting wholly defensive fields. Fielding restrictions dictate

392-429: The circle in the first fifteen overs, then five fielders allowed outside the circle for the remaining overs. This was shortened to ten overs in 2005, and two five-over powerplays were introduced, with the bowling team and batting team having discretion over the timing for one-one each. In 2008, the batting team was given discretion for the timing of one of the two powerplays. In 2011, the teams were restricted to completing

420-400: The discretionary powerplays between the 16th and 40th overs; previously, the powerplays could take place at any time between the 11th and 50th overs. Finally, in 2012, the bowling powerplay was abandoned, and the number of fielders allowed outside the 30-yard circle during non-powerplay overs was reduced from five to four. The trial regulations also introduced a substitution rule that allowed

448-484: The following countries have also participated in full ODIs, with some later gaining temporary or permanent ODI status also fitting into this category: Finally, since 2005, three composite teams have played matches with full ODI status. These matches were: Most Productive Overs method It was used from 1991, when it replaced the Average Run Rate method , until 1998. MPO was used most notably during

476-534: The hosts winning 2–0. Man of the Series Aamer Sohail scored 432 runs while his teammate Waqar Younis was the tournament's leading wicket taker with 21 victims. The tournament saw Sanath Jayasuriya , Adam Parore , Dave Callaghan and Michael Rindel all make their maiden ODI hundreds. South Africa won the best of three final series against Pakistan 2-0. Most runs Most wickets One-day International One Day International ( ODI )

504-412: The introduction of a replacement player at any stage in the match and until he was called up to play he assumed the role of 12th man. Teams nominated their replacement player, called a Supersub , before the toss. The Supersub could bat, bowl, field or keep wicket once a player was replaced; the replaced player took over the role of 12th man. Over the six months it was in operation, it became very clear that

532-417: The main the laws of cricket apply, but with each team batting for a fixed number of overs . In the early days of ODI cricket the number of overs varied from 40 to 60 overs per side (or 35 to 40 eight-ball overs), but it has been uniformly fixed at 50 overs since the mid-1990s. Simply stated, the game works as follows: Where a number of overs are lost, for example, due to inclement weather conditions, then

560-636: The matches with coloured uniforms was the WSC Australians in wattle gold versus WSC West Indians in coral pink, played at VFL Park in Melbourne on 17 January 1979. This led not only to Packer's Channel 9 getting the TV rights to cricket in Australia but also led to players worldwide being paid to play, and becoming international professionals, no longer needing jobs outside cricket. Matches played with coloured kits and

588-458: The maximum number of fielders allowed to be outside the thirty-yard circle. Under current ODI rules, there are three levels of fielding restrictions: The three powerplays are referenced by P1, P2 and P3 respectively, usually displayed near the score in modern scorecards. Fielding restrictions were first introduced in the Australian 1980–81 season. By 1992, only two fielders were allowed outside

616-422: The method: Two subsequent modifications were used: resetting the target based on the x consecutive most productive overs of Team 1's innings (where x is the number of overs Team 2 is to face), and reducing the target by 0.5% for each over lost, with the revised target being given by the next highest integer. While these modifications reduced Team 1's advantage, they only addressed the fourth intrinsic flaw of

644-418: The rival World Series Cricket competition, and it introduced many of the features of One Day International cricket that are now commonplace, including coloured uniforms, matches played at night under floodlights with a white ball and dark sight screens, and, for television broadcasts, multiple camera angles, effects microphones to capture sounds from the players on the pitch, and on-screen graphics. The first of

672-438: The times of their ODI debuts): Between 2005 and 2017, the ICC granted temporary ODI status to six other teams (known as Associate members ). In 2017, this was changed to four teams, following the promotion of Afghanistan and Ireland to Test status (and permanent ODI status). The ICC had previously decided to limit ODI status to 16 teams. Teams earn this temporary status for a period of four years based on their performance in

700-434: The total number of overs may be reduced. In the early days of ODI cricket, the team with the better run rate won (see Average Run Rate method ), but this favoured the second team. For the 1992 World Cup , an alternative method was used of simply omitting the first team's worst overs (see Most Productive Overs method ) but that favoured the first team. Since the late 1990s, the target or result has usually been determined by

728-537: Was criticised by the media and Australia's captain Allan Border . If an interruption means that the innings of the team batting second is reduced to a total of X overs, their target score is adjusted as follows: Whereas the Average Run Rate method heavily favoured the team batting second (Team 2), the Most Productive Overs method only favoured the team batting first (Team 1). There are four intrinsic flaws in

756-499: Was played on 5 January 1971 between Australia and England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground . When the first three days of the third Test were washed out officials decided to abandon the match and, instead, play a one-off one day game consisting of 40 eight-ball overs per side. Australia won the game by 5 wickets. ODIs were played in white-coloured kits with a red-coloured ball. In the late 1970s, Kerry Packer established

784-574: Was rejected. The International Cricket Council (ICC) determines which teams have ODI status (meaning that any match played between two such teams under standard one-day rules is classified as an ODI). The twelve Test-playing nations (which are also the twelve full members of the ICC) have permanent ODI status. The nations are listed below with the date of each nation's ODI debut after gaining full ODI status shown in brackets (Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Ireland, and Afghanistan were ICC associate members at
