Club cricket is an amateur, but still formal, form of the sport of cricket, usually involving teams playing in a competition.


Some club cricket is played with limited overs, with each innings usually lasting between thirty and fifty overs. Other club cricket is played over an afternoon or an entire day, sometimes with the restriction that no more than 20 overs may be bowled in the rest of the match after a certain time, or with a large total of overs to be split between the two sides (often 100 or 120 overs). In some leagues, matches are played over both Saturday and Sunday. These matches usually have two innings per side.


Club cricket is played extensively in cricketing nations, and also by immigrants from cricketing nations. Club cricket often takes place on an artificial turf pitch, though the rest of actual field may be natural grass.
