Playing Duration: Each T20 World Cup match is limited to 20 overs per team, to be completed within 3 hours and 10 minutes, including breaks.

Extra Time Allocation: Matches starting at different times have varying extra time allowances: 90 minutes for morning and afternoon games, and 60 minutes for evening games.
