Sports (Q&A)

Answer:

Cricket is not included in Olympics because of these possible reasons:

• Primarily there actually aren't enough countries playing cricket to qualify as an olympics sport.

• If a one-day cricket match was to be played, it would take about 8 hours, which means a full ground has to be kept reserved for the whole day.

• Another possible reason could be that the cricket authorities have made no efforts in the past towards this goal.

• It is also believed that olympics are biased towards sports favoured by europe.

• Cricket is not as popular as other sports like soccer.
