Re: Cricket in the 2028 Olympics (Los Angeles)

It's official. Cricket returns for the Los Angeles Olympiad. It will surely increase cricket's visibility worldwide though it remains to be seen in which countries the game grows. It may be more of a boost to women's game. Apparently, the new sports will be re-evaluated before inclusion for subseque...

Re: T20 WC 2024

The penultimate match day has been abandoned due to a tropical storm. Whether the all-important Canada/Bermuda encounter takes place as scheduled on October 7th is up in the air.
