Historically, this number has changed over time, starting with four balls to an over, then growing to five in 1889 and to the modern six in 1900.
Sporadically throughout the 20th century, eight-ball over had been trialed, but the practice was eventually abandoned, and as of 2000, the Laws of Cricket specify a six-ball over.

There are six legal balls bowled in one over, meaning that their has to be six balls which are not deemed to be no balls or wides.
By illegitimate, I presume you refer to a no-ball or a wide. Under current rules an over contains 6 balls. Some years back, 8-ball overs were used in Australia if nowhere else. For an over to be complete, 6-balls not including a wide or no-ball must be bowled. If an illegitimate ball is bowled, it must be rebowled. The most illegitimate balls bowled in one over was an over bowled by Curtly Ambrose in his final test on Australian soil which contained 9 no-balls - a total of 15 balls.
If there are no extras, then only 30 balls will be bowled. If there are extras, more balls will be bowled depending on the number of extras.
As many as the fielding team takes to get out the batters or until the batting team declares.
In cricket, an over consists of six legal balls bowled by the bowler to the batsman. A total of six balls are thrown in one over unless there are wides, no balls or other infringements that result in additional deliveries being bowled.
6 balls constitutes an "over". The length of a game in limited overs cricket is dependent on how many overs are being played - 20, 50 etc. Unlimited is dependent on time.
just 1... there are 2 balls per guy and there are 11 guys on a team . 2 teams. 44 balls
there are 6 in 1 over then depending on the format of the game it will change the total amount in a match. In a test match the should be about 90 over per day so thats 540. In an ODI its 50 per innings so thats 300 and 600 per match. In a T20 there are 120 per innings and 240 per match.

In cricket, an "over" is a set of six legal deliveries bowled by a bowler. It impacts the outcome of a match by determining how many runs a batting team can score and how many wickets a bowling team can take in a specific period of time. The number of runs scored or wickets taken in an over can significantly influence the overall result of the match.
