West Indian Islands Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Cricket Plea




Cricket West Indian Islands called on the International Cricket Council (ICC) to give the Caribbean nations the chance to participate in 2028 Los Angeles games and give the region a chance to avoid the “closure of history”. La 2028 will see that the cricket has returned to the Olympics for the first time since 1900, and six teams of T20 will be included in the program in both the male and women’s play. ICC, the global administrative body of Kriket, has not yet announced the competence process, but on the West Indian Islands, one of the largest international teams of sports, and geographically the closest to Los Angeles, has concerns that its founding countries can be excluded.

The reason for this is that Barbados, Jamaica’s house – Great Sprint USain Bolt – Antigua and Barbuda and Trinidad and Tobago’s house compete under the flag of the West Indian Islands when it comes to international crickets, and these regions are individual beings in one Olympics.

Therefore, if the cricket adequacy for LA 2028 is to be decided on the basis of the world ranking, the activity may continue without any Caribbean participation.

“All we ask is that the extraordinary Olympic heritage of our individual nations is taken into account in the speech,” CWI General Manager Chris Dehring said on Thursday. He said.

“Our nations proudly fly their individual flags on the Olympic podium as perennial gold medals.

“Now, with the inclusion of the jack, we must ensure that our cricketists are not out of history. We are ready to cooperate. We are ready to compete. But first of all we want justice.”

The CWI seems that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) seems to accept that a Western Indian Islands team did not allow their women to compete in LA 2028 when their women received the equivalent female global title despite the fact that men are T20 world champions in 2012 and 2016.

However, in a letter to ICC, the CWI proposed two possible ways for regional representation.

First, the West Indian Islands would see an inter -Caribbean qualifying tournament if men or women found themselves in elimination position, if the winner allowed the region to replace the region.

Secondly, a special regional process will take place, including each of the West Indians independent nations.

“The Caribbean has always appeared on its weight in the Olympics and inspired the world with our athletic brightness.

“The return of Crick to the games in 2028 should not exclude our young jigsers from the same dream that inspires our athletes.”
