Twenty20 is one of the three forms of cricket recognised by the International Cricket Council (ICC) as being played at the highest level, both internationally and domestically.[1] It was introduced by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) in 2003, with the T20 Blast, first ever tournament in history of T20 Cricket.[2] A typical Twenty20 game is completed in about three and a half hours, with each innings lasting around 90 minutes and an official 10-minute break between the innings.[3]
