The 45 minutes in ODI matches of cricket have several significant roles. There should be a time of rest between the physically exerting first innings, which may take more than three hours, and plays. In ODI innings break time is also the time when both teams can review their tactics. The side that is about to chase makes an analysis of the target score, behavior of the pitch and the run rate that is required. In the meantime, the bowling team talks about field placements and bowling rotations to justify their total. Analysts and coaches tend to study the performance data and highlights of the first innings. Also, players receive medical care, rehydrate, and change equipment in case it is needed. Broadcasting wise, the break gives it time to get expert commentary and match highlights. Such an organized time frame is a provision of fairness, rest and proper planning before the second inning of the game resumes.
