Cricket is going to return to Los Angeles Olympics 2028. This will be 128 years later when Cricket in Olympic will be played in the Olympic Games. Ever since the announcement of a cricket match in the La2028 Olympics, it has remained a complex question as to how many teams will play in it and how will their qualification be done? Actually, now a complex problem has come before the ICC, which team will qualify for the Olympic tournament.

According to a report by a cricbage, there will be an ICC conference in Singapore between July 13 and 17. According to the report, ICC will also discuss the minimum age required to play senior cricket in the meeting. Currently, players of 15 years or older can play international cricket. The ICC can offer a change in this rule.

What issues will be discussed in ICC conference

It is being told that the qualification process of teams will be discussed in Los Angeles Olympics 2028 in this conference. It also remains a question whether the United States (USA) will get direct qualification as a host. Discussion on this subject is also possible. Along with this, discussion on launching official mobile cricket game is also possible.

The problem related to qualification in the Olympics is that Scotland and England compete as Great Britain in the Olympics. On the other hand, the West Indies team plays in cricket, but the Caribbean countries participate in the Olympic Games as different countries. The ICC has to take a decision on this subject. It is hardly that a qualifying tournament for the Olympics is conducted. Teams can qualify based on T20 World Cup table or T20 rankings.

The problem about USA is that it is not a full member of the ICC right now. If she gets direct qualification, then only the remaining 5 teams will be able to qualify on the basis of rankings.
