BCCI to back ICC bid for cricket’s inclusion in 2028 Olympics

BCCI in its Annual General Meeting has decided to back ICC’s bid for cricket’s inclusion in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics after some clarifications from International Olympic Committee (IOC).

Also, it was decided that all first-class players, both men, and women, will be suitably compensated for the curtailed domestic season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The BCCI general body has also approved 10-team Indian Premier League (IPL) from 2022 edition. The inclusion of two new teams couldn’t be done in time for IPL 14 considering there is little time for tenders to be floated for new teams.

The general body decided in favour of Sourav Ganguly continuing as a director in the ICC Board. Rajiv Shukla returned as vice-president of BCCI after being elected unopposed.
