A 20/20 cricket game, usually called a T20 match, typically lasts about 3 to 3.5 hours, though some run a bit longer depending on stoppages and pace of play. Each team gets 20 overs, which is why it’s much shorter than one-day or Test cricket.

Quick breakdown

  • Match length: about 3 to 4 hours.
  • Innings length: around 90 minutes each.
  • Break between innings: usually 10 to 15 minutes.

Simple example

If a match starts at 7:00 PM, it often finishes around 10:15 PM to 10:30 PM, depending on delays and over rates.

TL;DR: A 20/20 cricket game usually takes just over 3 hours.
