The International Olympic Committee (IOC), under the leadership of President Thomas Bach, has announced the addition of cricket, flag football, lacrosse, squash, baseball, and softball to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. This decision not only marks cricket's return to the Olympics after 128 years, but also the debut of flag football, with NFL star Rob Gronkowski showing interest. The move has positively impacted consumer stocks in India, where cricket is a major sport. The IOC is also considering the inclusion of eSports in future Olympic Games.
