In a match of more than one day’s duration. When the fielding side captain may demand a new ball?

-
Equal to or greater than 70 overs
-
Equal to or greater than 80 overs
-
Equal to or greater than 90 overs
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
In a match of more than one day's duration, the fielding side captain may demand a new ball when the number of overs bowled is equal to or greater than 80. This is because after 80 overs, the ball tends to get worn out and loses its shine, making it difficult for the bowlers to generate swing or movement in the air. By demanding a new ball, the fielding side captain can ensure that their bowlers have a fresh and effective ball to work with, increasing their chances of taking wickets.
