Is a 4 day match the norm?

Test matches are played over 5 days, with 90 overs being allocated to each day. The shortest games are "0Twenty matches, which are a total of 40 overs. One day internationals are also only considered official matches if both sides have batted for at least 20 overs. It would be theoretically possible for a one innings match to last only 11 balls With one side being bowled out for 0 of 10 balls and the other side scoring the one to win off the first ball of their innings - unlikely though.
4 day matches are the standard matches in county cricket,
minor counties tend to play three day matches. Thse are the longest that the match is allowed to go there is no limit on how short the match is.

No. Test matches are played for 5 days. One Day Internationals are 50 overs each side. Minimum 20 overs should be bowled in an ODI match. If it is not possible to bowl minimum 20 overs each side, the match will be cancelled. Another form of cricket is 20 overs each side, which is the shortest version of cricket.

Knowadays test matches can last five days but the longest lastest 10, there is no actual minimum time for a game but as stated the quickest a game could finish is 11 balls.

a team can all out in 10 balls and can batt upto five days in test..it depends upon performance..
in one day they can all out for 10 balls and can play 50 overs means 50x6=300 balls per innings(1 innings each team)
team score more runs will win the match in oneday and in test(5 days)..can be a draw in one day if score levels ..in test u have to have all out the other team twice under five days and score more runs than ther team to win..but can be a draw if on team makes more runs than other and other team is not all out twice under 5 days..
complicated..u need to watch both types of games to get better understanding..
