In white-ball cricket, one bowler can bowl a maximum of 20% of the total overs in a match i.e. 10 overs per bowler in ODIs and 4 overs per bowler in T20Is. However, there is no such limit with the white ball. In test matches, a bowler can bowl any number of bowlers he wants to as there are no such restrictions on the same.
