==List A status== {{main|List A cricket}} '''List A cricket''' is a classification of the limited-overs (one-day) form of the sport of [[cricket]]. Much as domestic [[first-class cricket]] is the level below international [[Test cricket|Test match]] cricket, so List A cricket is the domestic level of [[one-day cricket]] below [[One Day International]]s. Twenty20 matches do not qualify for the present. Most cricketing nations have some form of domestic List A competition. The number of [[over (cricket)|over]]s in List A cricket ranges from forty to sixty overs per side. The [[Association of Cricket Statisticians and Historians]] created this category for the purpose of providing an equivalent to first-class cricket, to allow the generation of career records and statistics for comparable one-day matches. Only the more important one-day competitions in each country, plus matches against a touring Test team, are included. The categorisation of cricket matches as "List A" was not officially endorsed by the [[International Cricket Council]] until 2006, when the ICC announced that it and its member associations would be determining this classification in a manner similar to that done for first class matches.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/255055.html ICC clarifies what counts and what doesn't], from Cricinfo, 30 July 2006</ref> Matches that qualify as List A: * One Day Internationals (ODIs) * Other international matches. * Premier one-day tournaments in permanent test playing nations * Official matches of a Test nations against first-class teams * Official international matches between (officially) second-tier ODI teams Matches that do not qualify as List A: * World Cup warm-up matches * Other Tourist matches (for example, against first-class teams that are not part of the main domestic first-class competition, such as universities) * Festival and friendly matches * One Day tournaments in not test playing nations.
