On the 2020 issue, still a long way to go. I fail to see how the Olympic Committee would include a game that's being played by only 10 countries (Full Members). Importantly, the whole of Europe, minus UK, and the biggest brothers USA,China dont play the game.
Find it hard to see how it would be part of such a global event.

India's gotta grow mighty big for cricket to be included in the Olympics.
It would happen at some point, not sure when though.
Umm...I believe cricket is played by Scotland, Ireland,Netherlands, Namibia, Kenya, USA, Zimbabwe, Canada, Afghanistan,Nepal and China in addition to the 9 current test nations. So that's 20 nations? How many did ever play softball? And how many of the general public do ever play Archery?

I think they actually might do it as an under-23 thing in order to not undermine the ICC WC tournaments. Bangladesh has to take T20 seriously if it is included in the Olympics. We lost to Ireland in T20, who just lost to Afghanistan.
