There are two versions of cricket. Test cricket and one day cricket.

Test cricket is played with a red ball. One day cricket is played with a white ball.

Damn, I've never seen a white cricket ball. But I was certainly aware that test cricket and one day cricket existed. TIL.

One Day Cricket is broadly understood to be the 50 Over format.

Yeah a T20 game takes about 3.5 hours but that's not what "One Day" means in Cricket.

Is a T20 match played and completed within one day?

Yes but that isn't what 'one day' refers to in terms of cricket. One day is the name of the format with 50 overs per side, hence the name ODI (One Day International). A term that includes both T20 and One day would be limited overs or white ball.
