This question is going on all over the world for some time - Why can't Cricket be included in the Olympics ? Experts in the Olympic committee had many reasons not to.
They said cricket takes time and could not be filled within a 2 week agenda
We brought in the 20-20 and it takes less time and also adds flavour to the game
They said cricket is boring
IPL showed the world it wasn't
They said there aren't enough teams to participate
We have more then minimum number of nations signed with ICC and probably inclusion in Olympics would further help in improving the audience for Cricket as well as bringing in more and more nations in line with the game
Now its all set. Cricket Legends like Steve Waugh, Adam Gilchrist, Sourav Ganguly, Kumar Sangakkara, Ricky Ponting, Misbah-ul-Haq, Shoaib Malik and many more have come up with the initiative, it is us who can show them that we want Cricket in Olympics.
It takes 7 years for an International Olympic Committee(IOC) approved game to be included in Olympics. Cricket is not even approved by IOC. IOC need 10 billion votes to approve Cricket.For Cricket in 2020 Olympics, number of votes have to be reached within 2012 Olympics. Cast your vote and also ask your friends to vote.
