Organisers of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics want cricket added to their Games programme.
The organisers' recommendations will be subject to final approval by the International Olympic Committee , with a session set for Mumbai later this month, though the Los Angeles Times reported that the sports are likely to be approved. The IOC did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
'While this is not the final decision, it is a very significant landmark towards seeing cricket at the Olympics for the first time in more than a century. 'I'd like to thank LA28 for their support during the new sport evaluation process over last two years and we look forward to the final decision being taken at the IOC Session, in India, during the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup next week.' Of those five sports, three have never been included in an Olympic programme.
