List A cricket is a form of limited-overs cricket where each team is allowed to bowl a set number of overs, with each over consisting of six legal deliveries or balls bowled by one player. The number of overs is typically 40 or 60, depending on the competition. In List A cricket, both teams bat and bowl for a fixed number of overs, and the team with the most runs at the end of the match wins. It is commonly played in one-day tournaments or leagues and is popular for its fast-paced and exciting style of play, which often leads to high-scoring matches.
