Cricket was first included in the Olympic Games in 1900, however, it was only played once and has not appeared in the Olympics since. Cricket is set to make a historic return to the Olympic Games, with its inclusion in the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Olympics, which represents a major milestone in the sport's history and reflects its growing global popularity. Countries with a strong cricketing tradition, such as New Zealand, Australia, India, England, and Pakistan, are expected to have a significant presence and influence in the tournament. However, the inclusion also opens doors for emerging cricket nations to showcase their talent on a global stage. Cricket in China is a relatively recent development compared to its long-standing traditions in other countries, but the sport has been making steady progress. There is a growing interest in cricket among Chinese youth and expatriate communities, providing a foundation for future growth.
