Cricket in 2028 Olympics

[GIMH]

Afraid not, if ICC Rankings are used then Great Britisn does not rank in the top 6 according to ICC so they don't make it

The insecurity runs deep

Would Great Britain even exist in 2028 tho? Isn't there a Scottish referendum over Brexit?

I'd like to see a 16/32 team KO tournament with the West Indies competing as separate nations

Make it T10 if time is a factor

6 teams only is so dumb

The next Olympics after this are in Australia so cricket will definitely get a spot there, what has to happen for it to be included permanently? India to keep shitting the bed in other sports so that they demand cricket gets included?

I mean, this is just a given. Pakistan too, in case we think I'm singling out India. Sports in South Asia just isn't a priority, other than money making, sad to say.

Aside from, curiously enough, the javelin throw! Must be some overlap between the skills needed for fast bowling and chucking a pointy stick I guess

Arshad Nadeem and Neeraj Chopra can count their blessings that Bumrah decided to chuck cricket balls instead!

Didn’t they also want video games in the olympics? Bloody hell were losing it with some of these sports

The original concept of the modern Olympic games included pastimes such as chess and flower arranging, so video games sort of fit with that principle.

We will be Little Britain after the Scottish leave.
