How many balls are there in an over in cricket?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 6.
In cricket, an over consists of six legal deliveries, or balls, bowled by a bowler. The concept of an over is fundamental to the game's structure, with each team alternating between batting and bowling. After six balls are bowled, the over is complete, and a different bowler from the same team takes over to bowl the next over. The number of overs in a match varies depending on the format, such as Test cricket, One Day Internationals, or T20s.
