DRS (Decision Review System) is a technology that allows teams to challenge on-field umpire decisions. Teams get 3 reviews in Tests and 2 in Limited Overs cricket per innings. Ball-Tracking, HotSpot, and Snickometer are used to arrive at the correct decision.

Test: 5 days, 2 innings each, red ball, white dress — the oldest and most prestigious format. ODI: 50 overs per side, one day, coloured kits. T20: 20 overs per side, ~3 hours, the most explosive format. The IPL is played in the T20 format.

T20: The first 6 overs are mandatory powerplay — only 2 fielders allowed outside the 30-yard circle. ODI: The first 10 overs are mandatory (2 fielders outside), with optional powerplays also available. The best time for the batting team to hit boundaries!

IPL (Indian Premier League) is a franchise-based T20 tournament played in India. The world's best players — from any country — compete together. It is organized by the BCCI and is the most valuable cricket league in the world.

No Ball: The bowler's front foot goes beyond the crease — the batting team gets 1 extra run + a free hit (in T20/ODI). Wide: The ball goes too far from the batsman's reach — 1 extra run. In both cases, the ball is bowled again and does not count in the over.

Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) is a mathematical formula that calculates a revised target for the batting team in rain-interrupted limited-overs matches. The target is adjusted based on remaining overs and wickets to ensure a fair result.
