The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah has expressed his happiness at the inclusion of cricket in the Los Angeles Olympics 2028, saying that the Board has been a staunch supporter of International Cricket Council's efforts to get the sport to Olympics and the move will open new frontiers for the game. Cricket will be a part of the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 2028 and will make its return after 128 years to the multi-sport extravaganza, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) said on Monday. "The BCCI has been a staunch supporter of the ICC's efforts to include cricket as an Olympic sport. We are thrilled to witness this momentous occasion, which marks a significant milestone for the sport. Our active participation has been instrumental in promoting the case for cricket's inclusion in the Olympics. This initiative aligns with the idea of India hosting the 2036 Olympics, as envisioned by our Prime Minister (Narendra Modi)," Jay Shah said in a statement.
