Days after confirming cricket’s return to the Olympics after 128 years, the IOC has revealed the venue set to host the games at Los Angeles (LA) 2028 Olympics.
According to a statement by the IOC, cricket at the LA 2028 Olympics will be played in a temporary venue at the Fairgrounds in Pomona.
“The Fairgrounds in Pomona, officially known as Fairplex, is a near-500-acre event complex in Southern California that has hosted the Los Angeles County Fair since 1922. It is also a year-round venue for concerts, trade shows, sports and cultural events, it added.
The news comes days after the International Olympic Committee confirmed that the tournament will feature six teams each for men’s and women’s categories, competing in the T20 format.
A total of 90 athlete quotas have been allocated for each gender, allowing 15-player squads.
