It depends on the variant of cricket being played.

A Twenty20 match, intended to be fast-paced, generally plays over the course of three to four hours.

A One Day International match, having more overs, will play out over a longer period of the day (some ODI matches have run for over 8 hours, and rain can delay play into a second day).

First-class cricket typically sets a maximum length of time the game can be played. Most first-class games run for no more than four days; Test cricket usually runs for no more than five days.

The Test Cricket matches are the longest of the three types of cricket matches which lasts up too 5 days. The name Test Cricket match comes from the fact that it is a relative test of strength and endurance of the two sides in the grueling 5 day match.
