 Cricket is played in 3 formats, including ODI, Test, and T20. All have different rules and playing formats, where the test is the oldest format, ODI is one day, and T20 is the shortest format in the world. Many famous bowlers like Stuart Broad, Akila Dananjaya, Shivam Dube, Wayne Parnell, and Izatullah Dawlatzai have made exemplary achievements, but they also made history of making bad overs in cricket.
