Do you agree that cricket specially the twenty twenty version should be included in the future olympics?

cricket can be included, but they have to reduce overs to only 10 overs per team

no sorry 5 overs each, so that it has speed for olympics, olympics events mostly last only for few minutes

But football is included in olympics, which normally lasts for close to two hours(including the break). And in the knockout phase it may even go to 3 hours in case of a deadlock. For twenty twenty, the entire game lasts for 3 hours including the break. So what is the problem in including 20-20 when we are including football.It hardly makes any difference.

Yes, very much!! I feel that 20-20 would be a great crowd puller and entertainer for Olympics .The matches should however be played within 6-7 teams only .
