Maximum overs for a bowler in reduced 14 overs match?

Question

How to calculate maximum overs for a bowler in reduced over match i.e T20 match reduces to 14 or 13 overs? Can two bowlers play 4 overs and the other 3 bowlers play 2 overs per each in 14 over match?

Answer 1

As always, this depends on the playing conditions for the tournament you are in. However, we can take the current T20 International playing conditions as a guide:

In a delayed or interrupted match where the overs are reduced for both teams or for the team bowling second;

for innings of rescheduled length of at least 10 overs, no bowler may bowl more than one-fifth of the total overs allowed. Where the total overs is not divisible by 5, one additional over shall be allowed to the maximum number per bowler necessary to make up the balance.

or for 14 overs, 4 bowlers may bowl 3 overs each and one bowler may bowl 2 overs.
