Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Do your regional settings expect dates to be a "dd/mm/yyyy" format?

=COUNTIFS($G$5:$K$134;">30/11/2020";$G$5:$K$134;"<1/1/2021")

Or you could try a unambiguous format of.

=COUNTIFS($G$5:$K$134;">2020-11-30";$G$5:$K$134;"<2021-01-01")

Or you could try using the date formula.

=COUNTIFS($G$5:$K$134;">" & Date(2020,11,30);$G$5:$K$134;"<" & date(2021,1,1))

Try

=COUNTIFS($G$5:$K$134;">"&DATEVALUE("11/30/2020");$G$5:$K$134;"<"&DATEVALUE("01/01/2021")

are they actual dates in the cells or text
right click on a date
Format cells
Change to General and see if the date format changes to show just a number
dates are usually right justified and text is left, so looks like TEXT to me

44270 is the 15th March 21

They are actual dates. Just the format of the cell is made to show the date in that way.

It seems the dates are texts, not real dates (numbers).
If so try
=SUMPRODUCT(--(--$G$5:$K$134>DATE(2020,11,30)),--(--$G$5:$K$134<DATE(2021,1,1)))

I have sorted out the problem, it was with the format of the date. Changed it in the formula to YYYYMMDD. Problem resolved.
Thanks all
