Cricket at Olympics?

All the cricket lovers, have you ever wondered that cricket should be a part of Olympics? Well, this wish might come true in future. With the advent of T20, cricket might find a place in Olympics as well, the grandest stage of them all for any sports.

The process has already started. Cricket was recognized as an Olympic Sport in 2007, the first hurdle in the process of getting the full admission! Australian cricketer Adam Gilchrist is campaigning for Cricket to be in Olympics by 2020.

This is cool...

Cricket was last part of the Games in Paris in 1900 when Great Britain beat France to take the gold medal.
