A Super Over,[1][2] also known as a one-over eliminator[3][4] or a one over per side eliminator,[5] is a tie-breaking method used in limited-overs cricket matches. In a super Over, each team plays a single additional over of six balls to determine the match winner. If a match ends in a "tie", it proceeds to a Super Over, and the team scoring the most runs in that over is declared the winner. Following a rule change in October 2019 for knockout and bilateral series matches, if the first Super Over also ends in a tie, another Super Over is played..[6]
