Let us tell you that cricket has also been included in the 2028 edition of this spectacular mega event. The organizers of LA28 are looking for a suitable venue to host the cricket matches. New York is at the forefront of this list. Let us tell you, the time difference between Los Angeles and India is 12 hours and 30 minutes, which means that a prime time game will be broadcast at 8 pm in Los Angeles during breakfast in India. However, the time difference between New York and India is approximately 9 hours and 30 minutes which may prove to be a good time for the Indian audience. Apart from this, the games which start at 10:30 am in the East Coast will be played at around 8 pm Indian time and this is a very good time for Indian fans. A similar plan was made by the International Cricket Council during the T20 World Cup 2024, which was played in the USA. The organizers are yet to decide on the venue for the match. According to the report of Sportico, ‘Like other new sports, cricket is also facing difficulty in finalizing the venue. But the venue is very less. Actually, the organizers of LA28 want that Indian fans can enjoy cricket thoroughly and for this they will have to finalize a great venue. Cricket matches can be played in different venues in USA If cricket matches are played in New York, it will not be the first time that a game is being played outside the host city. The football matches of the recently concluded Paris Olympics were played in France and something similar can be seen for cricket in the LA28 Olympics.

But now the ICC has given a big hint that cricket can also be included in the Youth Olympics to be played in the year 2030. For this, the ICC is in talks with the Olympic Association. Actually, this decision has been taken because in October last year, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi wanted to organize the Youth Olympics in 2030 and the Olympics in 2036. However, now India has shifted its focus to just the 2036 Olympics. Now that the ICC has built strong ties with the IOC and the IOC believes that the “cricket brand” can enhance the “Olympic brand”, it will not be a difficult task to convince the IOC to include cricket as a core sport in the Youth Olympics.

Let us tell you, Vinesh Phogat was disqualified before the finals of the currently being played Paris Olympics 2024 due to being 50 grams overweight. All the Indian fans were very disappointed that Vinesh Phogat could not win the gold medal in the wrestling event. Now former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has given his opinion on this whole matter. Sachin Tendulkar has appealed that harsh decisions should not be taken against Vinesh Phogat. Regarding Vinesh Phogat, Sachin Tendulkar has also appealed that she should definitely get the silver medal because the female wrestler had made her place in the top two by defeating her opponent properly. Here is Sachin Tendulkar’s tweet: #VineshPhogat #Paris2024 #Olympics @WeAreTeamIndia pic.twitter.com/LKL4mFlLQq — Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt) August 9, 2024 Let us tell you, after being disqualified, Vinesh Phogat had appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sports that she should be jointly awarded the silver medal. The court heard the matter. The decision in this case is yet to come but CAS is issuing a statement on Friday that it can give its decision in this case before the current Olympic Games. This is very good news for Vinesh Phogat. This is because if CAS does not find Vinesh Phogat guilty anywhere, she can get the silver medal. CAS has issued a statement saying that Dr. Annabella Bennett is hearing this case and she can give a decision on this matter by the end of the Olympic Games. So far, India has won four bronze medals and one silver medal in Paris Olympics 2024. Manu Bhaker was the first to win the bronze medal in shooting.

Neeraj Chopra’s silver medal in Paris Olympics is like Team India’s defeat in World Cup 2023! Understand the whole matter here
Chopra had to be content with the silver medal in the javelin throw competition. Neeraj Chopra (Image Credit- Twitter X) The final of the javelin throw competition was played on 8 August at the Paris Olympics. Let us tell you that in this final, Neeraj Chopra, who was a strong contender to win the gold medal, had to settle for the silver medal. However, Arshad Nadeem of Pakistan created a new Olympic record by throwing the javelin at 92.97 meters and won the gold medal. So today in this article we will try to look at this silver medal of Neeraj Chopra from the cricket perspective: Neeraj Chopra’s silver medal was like India’s defeat in World Cup 2023 We can see many similarities between Neeraj Chopra’s silver medal in the Paris Olympics and the performance of the Indian cricket team in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. Because Team India came to the World Cup after winning the Asia Cup 2023, and was in excellent form. So something similar happened with Neeraj Chopra, as he won gold medals in the World Athletics Championship 2023 and Asian Games before participating in the Paris Olympics 2024. Chopra’s form was also amazing just like Team India. The Indian team did not lose any match in the World Cup in the league stage, and after that, it won the semi-finals and made it to the finals with 10 wins. Team India was a strong contender to win the finals, just like Neeraj was to win the gold medal in the Olympics. Whereas India was playing cricket on its home ground. So just like Team India lost against Australia in the World Cup, something similar happened to Neeraj in the Olympics with Arshad Nadeem of Pakistan. Neeraj has defeated Nadeem in all the competitions held before this, but yesterday on 8th August, in the javelin throw competition, he threw a brilliant throw and secured the gold medal. But this should not have happened to Neeraj and Team India on the day of the final. But it has to be accepted that after being informed, both times Team India and Neeraj have been overpowered by their opponents in the final. During both the matches, every Indian fan kept watching with rapt attention and thinking that had this not happened, Team India could have won the World Cup and Neeraj the gold medal. Team India could have ended the 13-year drought by winning the World Cup on Indian soil, while Neeraj could have become the greatest Indian track and field athlete by winning two consecutive gold medals at the Olympics. But perhaps this was not meant to happen. However, after this, the Indian cricket team’s dream of not winning the ICC trophy was fulfilled after winning the T20 World Cup 2024, but now Neeraj will have to wait for four years to win the gold medal again. So if everything goes well, then fans can see Neeraj and the Indian team winning the gold medal together in the Olympics to be held in Los Angeles in…

Paris Olympics 2024: When Vinesh Phogat missed out on creating history, the cricket world gave such reactions
Vinesh Phogat (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Vinesh Phogat is the 2024 Paris Olympics winner Seeing the way India’s star female wrestler Vinesh Phogat won three matches one after the other and made it to the finals on 7 August in the Paris Olympics, everyone believed that Vinesh would definitely bring a gold medal for her country. But this dream of Vinesh Phogat as well as crores of Indians has been shattered. Vinesh Phogat had made it to the finals by winning all her three matches in the women’s 50 kg category on Tuesday. During this time, Vinesh also defeated Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Susaki. Meanwhile, on Wednesday morning, news came that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified. This means that she has been declared ineligible to play in the final match. Vinesh Phogat’s weight was 100 grams more than the prescribed weight and due to this she was disqualified. Hearing this news, millions of Indian fans including Vinesh were disappointed. Actually, according to the rules regarding weighing, the wrestler’s weight is taken on the day when he has to fight. The matches of every weight category are held within two days, so the wrestlers who reach the final or repechage have to get weighed on both days. The wrestler has 30 minutes for the first time while getting weighed. They can weigh themselves as many times as they want within 30 minutes. During this time, it is also checked that the wrestler does not have any infectious disease and his nails are cut very short. Wrestlers who have to compete for the second consecutive day are given 15 minutes to weigh themselves. The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) confirmed that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified due to being overweight. The association said, “The Indian team is saddened to report that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified from the 50 kg category of women’s wrestling. Despite the best efforts made by the team overnight, this morning her weight was a few grams more than 50 kg. There will be no further comment by the team at this time. The Indian team requests you to respect Vinesh’s privacy. She would like to focus on the current competitions.” Paris Olympics 2024 Vinesh Phogat: Cricketers gave such reactions on Vinesh Phogat being out A day of relentless fights, defying the craziest of odds, breaking the world number 1’s perfect streak.
