The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has officially accepted the recommendation of cricket’s inclusion  in the upcoming 2028 Olympic Games to be held in Los Angeles, USA. The decision was confirmed at IOC’s  executive board’s meeting in Mumbai. A formal confirmation is expected to be announced on Monday.

Notably, cricket had made its maiden (and only) previous appearance at the Olympics back in 1900 when it was one of only 18 sports. The decision to recommend these sports was made during the IOC’s executive board meeting in Mumbai on October 12. The next step involves the IOC voting on the proposal during its “Session” scheduled from October 14 to 16 in Mumbai.
