History

The sport's inclusion into the sport was pegged by multiple regional cricket officials and Cricket West Indies (CWI), who have publicly advocated for cricket's growth in the Americas. ^[3] In March 2025, a high-level delegation led by CWI President Dr. Kishore Shallow met with multiple Peruvian Olympic Committee members in a bid for cricket's inclusion at the 2027 Games. ^[4] Previously, Panam Sports President Neven Ilic had said that addition of new Olympic games–including cricket–would be difficult considering they are "not deeply developed in our region". ^[5] In June, following a Panam Sports Executive Board meeting, cricket was officially included in the list of 36 sports to be played in 2027. ^{[6] [7]}
