Solution
- A painted circle (or ellipse), centered in the middle of the pitch, of radius 30 yard marked on the field
- The purpose of 30 yard circle is separating the infield from the outfield, used in policing the fielding regulations for certain one-day versions of the game.
- In a limited overs contest, fielding is restricted to a 30-yard circle. In a necessary power play, two fielders remain outside, and in a batting power play, three fielders remain outside the 30 yard circle.
