El presidente de la ICC, Jay Shah, asistirá a la sesión del COI en Lausana para discutir si el cricket podría incluirse en los Juegos Olímpicos de 2032, basándose en su éxito en Los Ángeles 2028.
ICC Chair Jay Shah is heading to Lausanne for the International Olympic Committee (IOC) session on January 30 at the Olympic House. He plans to have discussions about including cricket in the 2032 Olympics. Last month, Shah was in Brisbane to promote cricket’s inclusion in the 2032 Olympics. There, he met with the Brisbane Olympic Organising Committee chief Cindy Hook and Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley. During India’s third Test against Australia, Shah watched the game from the stands and interacted with former cricketers like Sunil Gavaskar and Allan Border in the press box.
Key role in LA 2028 Olympics
As the former BCCI secretary, Shah played a crucial role in getting cricket included in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. As ICC Chair, he emphasized the exciting future for the sport, stating, “This is an exciting time for the sport as we prepare for the LA28 Olympic Games and work to make cricket more inclusive and engaging for fans worldwide.”
