Cricket approved by IOC for 2028 Los Angeles Olympics | AFP

Cricket has been approved by the International Olympic Committee's executive for inclusion in the programme for the 2028 Games in Los Angeles, it was announced Friday. IOC president Thomas Bach, speaking after the second day of an executive board meeting in Mumbai, said officials had accepted a proposal by LA organisers for Twenty 20 cricket -- the game's shortest established international format -- to be included as one of five new sports together with baseball/softball, flag football (non-contact American football), squash and lacrosse.

    Most of the Olympic games are - the game for the plyer and their country. The player is dedicated to the game. Their audience are interested in many games. Means one Audie watch more than one game. One Audie purchase tickets of many games. Distribution of audience is not concentrate in one game. There is no gambling. There is not frauds. On the other hand - cricket and football are the game for only audience. Their players are not play for themselves and their country. They are not dedicated to their games. They are dedicated to only audience. Their Audience are dedicated to that particular game. Their audience are not interested in many games. Their audience are not game lover. They are show lover, only audience. Only audience means market. Market of whole world. This means these are not games. These are pure business of business tycoons. These games also make frauds, illigal gambling, ligal gambling. There is no game tendency. This tendency will effect bad on other games of olympic.
