How teams can qualify at the LA28

Both of these qualifier events will each feature eight teams – spread across two groups of four – and 13 matches. 

Each team will play the other teams in their group once, with the group winners progressing to the final. The winners of the final will secure the final qualification berth for the LA28. 

The events constitute the final stage of the qualification pathway for cricket’s return to the Olympic programme at LA28.

Cricket returns to the most prestigious stage in the sporting world after a period of 128 years, and six teams will be vying for their spot on the Olympic podium, in both the men’s and women’s competition.
