The International Cricket Council (ICC) sets the dates for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic cricket qualifiers, with both men’s and women’s qualifying competitions scheduled for January and February 2028, months before cricket returns to the Olympic programme. The report says the dates come from the ICC’s latest global events calendar shared with member boards after meetings in Dubai in October.
The same calendar also lists the 2029 World Test Championship (WTC) final in England from June 8 to 12. Free Press Journal adds that the updated schedule runs from 2027 to 2031 and includes a large number of men’s, women’s and Under-19 events, including qualifiers. It also notes that the Olympic qualification criteria were previously outlined and have been updated for the United States’ position as host in the women’s event.
Other outlets, including NDTV and India Today, focus on the headline date range for the qualifiers, while NDTV also mentions the WTC final date and location. Across sources, the core event timing for the Olympic qualifiers is consistent, with differences mainly in the amount of broader calendar context provided.
