Cricket at the Summer Olympics
Cricket was originally scheduled to be included in the inaugural 1896 Summer Olympics, which were held in Athens; cricket would have been the only team sport held at the Games. There were, however, insufficient entries and so no event was held.
J. Braid
J. Braid was a member of the silver medal winning French cricket team at the 1900 Summer Olympics, the only time cricket has featured in the Olympics. In the only match against Great Britain he top scored with 25 in the French first innings, and scored seven runs in their second.
