Which of the following is NOT an Olympics Sport? (As of March, 2023)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Cricket.

  • As of March 2023, cricket is not part of the Olympic Games. Despite its global popularity, especially in countries like India, Australia, and England, cricket has only appeared once in the Olympics, in 1900.
  • Since then, it has not been reintroduced due to several factors, including scheduling conflicts and logistical challenges.
  • The International Cricket Council (ICC) has made efforts to bring the sport back, but obstacles like the length of the game and global participation continue to hinder its inclusion.
