Correct option is B

The correct answer is (b)11.
Explanation:
In a T20 cricket match, each team consists of 11 players, as per the rules set by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
This rule applies to all official T20 matches, including international and domestic leagues such as the Indian Premier League (IPL), Big Bash League (BBL), and Caribbean Premier League (CPL).

Each team includes:

  • Batsmen (Specialist batters)
  • Bowlers (Pace or spin specialists)
  • All-rounders (Players who can both bat and bowl)
  • Wicketkeeper (A specialized player behind the stumps)
Additional Knowledge:
T20 Format: A shorter format of cricket, consisting of 20 overs per team.
  • Playing XI: Every cricket team fields 11 players, with different roles including batting, bowling, and wicketkeeping.
  • 12th Man Rule: The 12th player serves as a substitute fielder but cannot bowl, bat, or keep wickets.
  • Captain's Role: The captain of the team makes strategic decisions, such as batting order, field placements, and bowling changes.
  • Impact Player Rule (IPL): Some domestic T20 leagues like the IPL have introduced the Impact Player Rule, allowing one tactical substitution in a match.
  • Fielding Restrictions: Powerplay rules limit the number of fielders outside the 30-yard circle in the first six overs.
  • Super Over Rule: If a T20 match ends in a tie, a "Super Over" is played to determine the winner.
