English limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan has weighed in on the ‘should cricket be included in Olympics’ debate and reckoned that T10 is the only format that can be included in the Olympics as it is exciting and the tournament can be over in 10 days.

In the past, the 50-over format was tried at the 1998 Commonwealth Games where South Africa beat Australia in the final to clinch the gold medal.

“The one thing that T10 offers above the three formats that makes it so appealing to Olympic games or a Commonwealth games is the fact that you can play a whole tournament in the space of 10 days. To have a tournament in such a short space of time maximises the opportunity and the exposure that it will have for the sport,” Morgan said during a video conference as per ESPNCricinfo.
