Length of a day in a test match

[tjh1989]

During a days play on a test match does anyone know how many overs there are in it, if i j=know it it means i can predict my score using the run rate

 

[rocklara]

according to what i have played it is around 80 overs in a day still 10 overs short of the standard

it's over 80. Basically is 27 overs a day, but sumtimes its 28

new ball comes in about 75.

i have got the 90 in a day but that was cause i bowled a heap of spinners.
if you bowl with pace-men for about 20 overs or more than the max is 80.

I was just about to point out the variance of each game.

Depends on bowlers, time etc.

That didn't make sense what i said. Here's a better version:
Usually the max number of overs bowled in a day will be greater than 80. Basically it is 27 over per session, but sumtimes it can be higher or lower by a couple. So yer, it does depend on certin things

Still made sense if you looked at it side ways.

27 overs a session sounds better than just 27 overs I looked at went ah must be per session.

How many overs is the most you have had to play in one day?
