Excuse the ignorance, but why is some cricket called 'one day cricket' when it goes on for weeks on end, not just one day?

UMMMMM NOOOO

One day cricket goes for that - one day. It s 50 overs a side.

The longest a cricket match goes for is 5 days (test match) where both sides bat for 2 innings.

Ta guys!

It always seemed that cricket was just one, big, long game that you kept playing until... well, whenever! Like Monopoly! ;)

You learn something new everyday! :)
