Cricket at the 2028 Olympics: Schedule, Qualification, Players & How to Watch

on

Cricket is returning to the Olympic Games at Los Angeles 2028 after its only previous Olympic appearance at Paris 1900. The LA28 cricket tournaments will use the fast-paced T20 format, with six men's teams and six women's teams.

The road to LA28 includes a major sequence of international events, from the ICC World Test Championship Final in June 2027 and the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027 to the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2028 in Australia and New Zealand.

This guide brings the major events, Olympic qualification pathway, LA28 format, venue, teams to follow and key dates together in one page. Qualification details are based on the latest ICC and LA28 information available as of September 30, 2026.

Cricket at LA28: Quick Facts

Information LA28 Cricket
Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028
Olympic dates July 14–30, 2028
Cricket format T20
Men's tournament 6 teams
Women's tournament 6 teams
Venue Fairgrounds Cricket Stadium, Pomona
Players per Olympic squad Up to 15 players per nation

🗓️ Major Global Cricket Events Through the 2028 Olympics

The period from 2027 through LA28 contains several of international cricket's biggest tournaments. The table below focuses on the major men's events that shape the global calendar and sit alongside the Olympic qualification journey.

Competition / Event Period Host / Venue Format Key Details
ICC World Test Championship Final June 9–13, 2027 The Oval, London, England Test Cricket The WTC title decider between the two finalists of the 2025–27 championship cycle.
ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027 October–November 2027 South Africa, Zimbabwe & Namibia ODI / 50-over A 14-team World Cup with a revised three-stage competition structure before the semi-finals and final.
LA28 Olympic Cricket July 2028 Fairgrounds Cricket Stadium, Pomona, California T20 Six men's teams and six women's teams will compete for Olympic medals.
ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2028 October 2028 Australia & New Zealand T20I The 20-team tournament will use a revised five-group opening stage followed by a Super 10 round and eliminators.

The Road to Cricket at LA28

The Olympic qualification system for cricket at LA28 is different from a conventional single qualifying tournament. The ICC and IOC have confirmed a pathway combining ICC T20I rankings, continental representation and a new ICC Olympics Qualifier in 2027.

2026 — Ranking Cut-Off Foundations

The men's Olympic pathway uses the ICC Men's T20I rankings at the December 31, 2026 cut-off. Eligible teams from Africa, Asia, Europe and Oceania can qualify through the ranking route if they satisfy the top-15 requirement.

2027 — Olympic Qualifier

The first ICC Olympics Qualifier will be held in 2027. Eight nations will take part in the men's and women's qualifier fields, with the remaining Olympic berth in each competition decided through this event.

2028 — Olympic Cricket

The qualified teams will compete in six-team men's and women's T20 tournaments at the Fairgrounds Cricket Stadium in Pomona, California.

🎫 How Cricket Olympic Qualification Works

Men's Competition

  1. Five places: five of the six men's Olympic places are decided through the ICC Men's T20I ranking pathway.
  2. Continental representation: the highest-ranked eligible teams from Africa, Asia, Europe and Oceania at the December 31, 2026 cut-off can progress, provided they are inside the ICC men's T20I top 15.
  3. USA host pathway: the United States is eligible for the host-nation route, subject to being in the top 15 of the relevant ICC T20I rankings at the December 31, 2026 cut-off.
  4. Sixth place: the final Olympic berth is decided by the ICC Olympics Qualifier in 2027.
Important: The Olympic pathway is not simply “the four continental champions plus a global qualifier.” The latest ICC rules use the T20I ranking system, eligibility conditions and the 2027 Olympics Qualifier. The United States also has a host pathway subject to the stated ranking requirement.

👑 Major Cricket Nations to Follow

The Olympic field will not be complete until the qualification process is finished. However, several established international programs will be closely followed during the road to LA28.

  • India — a leading global cricket program across Test, ODI and T20 formats, and the winner of the 2026 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
  • Australia — a major international power across all three formats and one of the co-hosts of the 2028 Men's T20 World Cup.
  • England — an established white-ball and Test nation with a major role in the international calendar.
  • New Zealand — a consistent international contender and co-host of the 2028 Men's T20 World Cup.
  • South Africa — one of the host nations for the 2027 Men's Cricket World Cup.
  • Pakistan — a major T20 and ODI nation with a large international following.
  • West Indies — a historic T20 force, although the ICC has confirmed that the composite West Indies entity is not itself an IOC National Olympic Committee and therefore cannot directly obtain an Olympic quota place.
  • United States — the LA28 host nation, with its Olympic qualification subject to the ICC top-15 T20I ranking requirement.
