Team sport
Seven team sports are currently on the program of the Summer Olympics. Cricket's inclusion in the 2024 Summer Olympics depends on the decision of the International Cricket Council and its members. A cricket tournament formed part of the Summer Olympics in 1900, although only one match was played, between teams representing Great Britain and France. However, the British team was effectively a club touring side and the French players were drawn partly from expatriates living in Paris.

Charles B. K. Beachcroft (born Charles Beachcroft Kay, 1870 – 1 July 1928) was the captain of the gold-medal-winning Great Britain cricket team at the 1900 Summer Olympics, the only time cricket has been an Olympic sport.
