Cricket is a very good Game Which comes out with Team Work, now There r many nations which are playing cricket, I think The ICC Should Work out on this..
Atleast 20-20 format of cricket can be played in olympics....
What is your openion on this ? Is it posssible or not?

it is possible but there are more people who are against it and they give a very unusaul reasoning for it that "olympics is an event to map out the individual efforts and since cricket is a team sport i can't be in olympics".
then what for football,hockey etc why them but that question should be asked to these people.
i love cricket and i think it should be palced in olympic and the 20-20 format would be a nice option to begin with
thanks for sharing

Cricket should need an entry to olympics as its gaining popularity all over the worl. It can be more popular with entry to this mega event. 20 - 20 event will be best format of cricket to get introduced to olympics.but from next event onwards there is now base ball so, chances of getting an entry for cricket is very meek.

well whatever may be the case cricket will Be the part of next Olympics i guess. one days and test matches are the longer versions and just boring for some but twenty twenty has everything in it and is just the perfect thing for the olympics. The theories and views are just a try to keep it out but don't thing they will succeed.

yes the chances are many but the ICC is not really making i true effort in this regard. they should present the case to the olympic commission but they too are kind a lazy. but yes cricket has and will be there as long as fans like us are there and for the good of the game 20-20 is a good format and rock on!

well i think,most probably 20-20 will be introduced in olympics atleast in 2020 olympics,
yeah 20-20 takes less time and is more entertaining,
and most importantly,we can expect more medals then,,thanks.

yep, i thinks so, 20-20 format can be introduced into the olympics. it is entertaining, fast, and it doest take very long time to finish one match. including in olympics is not going to be easy. icc has to work hard to get it done. i hope it get into next olympics
