Great Britain's top-order did the hard grind to counter the treacherous Colombes pitch. Patsy Hendren was the top scorer with a fighting 39 off 82 balls.

That was something South Africa's batsmen failed to do. Following the loss of both their openers for noughts, they were steered in the right direction by some brilliant batting from Fred Susskind and Dave Nourse, but promptly lost the plot once both were dismissed. Great Britain's skipper Arthur Gilligan led from the front with 4 wickets at the cost of 16 runs from 6.3 overs. The British finished with their first Bronze medal for cricket in the Olympics after years of winning only Silver and Gold medals.

Needless to say, they failed quite miserably. Charles Macartney, who hadn't scored while batting, picked up two wickets in succession in the 41st over. So did Ryder in the very next over. Snuffy Browne, Victor Pascall and Herman Griffith were all out first ball for nought. West Indies had been reduced from 142/4 to 148/9.

The last wicket took a little longer than expected, as Learie Constantine and George Francis defied the likes of Gregory, Grimmett and Mailey for nearly 4 overs. Francis was finally bowled by Mailey in the 46th over.

The Australian team celebrated their fourth Gold medal for cricket with a 59-run victory over the West Indies. It was their second in succession since the resumption of the Olympic Games 1920.

600px-WestIndies1923Team.jpg


The West Indies finished with a Silver medal, their best result in 20 years of participation in the Olympics. Great Britain look a step backwards by winning their first ever Bronze medal for cricket, after years of only Gold and Silver.

100144.1.jpg


Though he failed to score any runs in the final, Charles Macartney was undoubtedly the best player on show in the 1924 Olympics. In what might be his last appearance at the Games, the powerfully built all-rounder redeemed himself from a horror show in 1908 where he had scored only 39 runs from 5 innings at an average of 9.75, which could have been much worse if he hadn't finished the season with an unbeaten 36. This time he had 175 runs at 58.33, and not to mention 6 wickets at a miserly average of 10 with his underrated left-arm spin. He also helped Australia reach the final by striking Frank Woolley for 14 in the final over of the semi-final against arch-rivals Great Britain. All this made him a far more deserving candidate for the Player of the Tournament, despite being behind Jack Hobbs, George Challenor, Herbert Sutcliffe, Patsy Hendren in terms of runs.

The medal allocations for cricket at the 1924 Olympic Games were as follows :-

Feels great to have another Gold medal to our name. Didn't expect the top order to collapse like that, but the other players really stepped up. Our bowling was simply fantastic. Now bring on the Don! @VC the slogger
 
We deserved gold medal but Congratulations Australia!

Cricket at the Olympics - Paris 1924

The Olympic Games will return to the city of Paris for a second time in 1924. A total of 16 nations have entered to participate in the sport of cricket, which will be in it's seventh iteration in the Olympics much like the Games themselves. The list of participants for cricket in the 1924 Games are (in alphabetical order):
KzjqJiC.png
Argentina,
IMNGEl9.png
Australia,
nmZPDsk.png
Bermuda,
K7kWDQr.png
Brazil,
Sv0Jtry.png
Canada,

New Zealand,
eK0E6hz.png
Rhodesia,
96E0yRo.png
South Africa,
qhBYwuP.png
United States and the
hwGqN2n.png
West Indies.

Debutants Bermuda and Rhodesia will also be appearing in the Olympic Games for the first time since it's inception. Meanwhile Ireland, who last participated as an independent nation in 1904, will be making a comeback after a period of 20 years. One notable absentee is the host nation France, who participated in the sport of cricket the last time the Olympics were hosted in Paris in 1900. Like Belgium before them in the previous edition of the Games, France have also drifted out of the sport since the Great War, having last played an international match in 1910.

The standard cup tie or knockout format which was used for the previous two editions of the Olympics in 1912 and 1920, has been retained. The only change this time being that every participating nation will have to play the first round of the competition, with none getting direct byes to the quarter-finals. The cricket matches will be played across two venues - Stade Olympique de Colombes, the main stadium for the 1924 Games; and Vélodrome de Vincennes, the stadium which hosted cricket matches during the 1900 Games.

Summary

The Olympic Games returned to the city of Paris for a second time in 1924, making it the first city to host more than one edition of the Games. Paris had previously played host to the Olympics in 1900. This edition of the Olympic Games, officially known as Games of the VIII Olympiad, was the first in which the Olympic motto Citius, Altius, Fortius (Faster, Higher, Stronger) was used.

An all-time high 16 NOCs entered for the sport of cricket. They were (in alphabetical order) Argentina, Australia, Bermuda, Brazil, Canada, Ceylon, Chile, Great Britain, India, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Rhodesia, South Africa, United States and the West Indies. Bermuda and Rhodesia made their sporting debuts at the Olympic Games. However, one notable absentee was the host nation France, who had participated in cricket when the Olympics were hosted in Paris in 1900. Like Belgium in 1920, France had also moved on from the sport due to it's decline in popularity in the nation since the Great War.

The 16 matches played in the tournament, including knockouts, were evenly distributed across two venues - the Stade Olympique de Colombes, the main stadium for the 1924 Games; and Vélodrome de Vincennes, the stadium which hosted cricket matches during the 1900 Games. The final was played in the latter for it's deep history with the game of cricket. The tournament format remained the same as in 1912 and 1920, with the standard cup tie or knockout format being put in use again, with only one change - all the participating nations were made to feature in the first round of sixteen teams.

Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, United States, Ireland, West Indies, South Africa and Argentina made it past the first round and into the quarter-finals of the tournament. The casualties of the first round were Ceylon, Rhodesia, Chile, Canada, Netherlands, India, Bermuda and Brazil. Among the highlights of the first round were a hat-trick from Ireland's Tom Jameson against the Netherlands, the first in the history of the Olympics; and a century from Harry Kortlang of the United States at the age of 44 in their match against Canada, making him the oldest player to score a century in the Olympics. The quarter-finals were a face-off between Trans-Tasman rivals Australia and New Zealand, Great Britain and one-time equals United States, Ireland and the West Indies, and lastly South Africa and Argentina.

Australia overcame New Zealand by 18 runs in the first quarter-final despite a thoroughly entertaining cameo from Tom Lowry who scored 40 off only 19 balls. Great Britain crushed the United States by a massive 182-run margin, showing just how wide the gap between the two teams had become since 1912, when they faced each other in the final of the Olympics for the third and possibly last time. Jack Hobbs broke the previous highest individual score record set by the legendary Clem Hill in 1904 by scoring an unbeaten 150 in the match. Ireland and the West Indies played out perhaps the most thrilling match in the history of the Olympics. The former had levelled the scores and needed just 1 run to win the match, but for a brilliant piece of fielding by Learie Constantine off his own bowling to defy them. The West Indies were controversially allowed to progress to the semi-finals due to their superior head-to-head record against the Irish, when the usual tiebreaker of fewer wickets lost in an innings could not be put into use. The fourth quarter-final saw South Africa knock out 1920 Bronze medalists Argentina in a convincing 6-wicket victory.

In the first-semi-final between arch-rivals Australia and Great Britain, Charles Macartney wrote himself into Olympic folklore when he smashed Frank Woolley for 14 runs in the final over of the match to level Great Britain's total of 235. This was the second tie of the 1924 Games and only the third overall. Australia were adjudged victors for having lost fewer wickets than Great Britain, and progressed to the final. South Africa were beaten by the West Indies in the second semi-final on the back of a century from George Challenor and a disciplined bowling performance. This left Great Britain and South Africa to battle it out for a Bronze medal, while Australia and the West Indies battled it out for Gold.

Great Britain won their first Bronze medal for cricket by defeating South Africa by 51 runs. In a way, this was a step backwards as they had won only Gold and Silver medals in every Olympics since the first in 1896. South Africa finished fourth on the overall standings, their best performance since 1912.

The final saw Australia pitted against the West Indies. Though rattled early on, the Australians recovered due to some erratic bowling and fielding from the West Indians to post a challenging 225/7, with Alan Kippax scoring a defiant 84. The West Indies started off the same way with the bat as they had done with the ball, but collapsed to lose their last 6 wickets for a mere 24 runs. They were bowled out for 166, thus giving Australia victory by a handsome 59-run margin.

Australia finished with their fourth Gold medal for cricket, and second in succession since 1920 to match their previous Gold-winning streak between 1900 and 1904. West Indies won a Silver medal, their first for the sport after a near miss in their debut year in 1904. Charles Macartney was declared Player of the Tournament by the officials for scoring 175 runs at 58.33 and also picking up 6 wickets at a miserly average of 10 with his underrated left-arm spin. Jack Hobbs, who topped the run charts for the second Olympic Games on the trot, was a tad unlucky to miss out on the honor.

@Ali. @Asham @CerealKiller @HawkAussie @NaviN GandhI @Rudolph @Sami Kumar @Samuels @Saroj padhy @sathishsky @Sodium @The Author @themusketeer @Trident @zwarrior - Thank you for your participation in this season. Stay tuned, 'cause I have no intention of slowing down till I reach Berlin '36. Will start 1928 once I'm able to fill up all your squads with 14/15 players each.

TBH the result was quite expected but we could have done a little better had our fielders with butter fingers latched onto the changes that were produced by our bowlers. Had we done that, we might have had a very very close game. Neverthless, I am happy that we have finished as second to a country that had been playing test cricket for about 70 years!

Come 1928, we would have the services of Manny, Roach and above all, Headley which should maximise our chances.
 
Feels great to have another Gold medal to our name. Didn't expect the top order to collapse like that, but the other players really stepped up. Our bowling was simply fantastic. Now bring on the Don! @VC the slogger
The upcoming season will also mark the debut of George Headley but tbh the 1940s would be an amazing season because of Australia supposedly having the 'Invincibles' team in 1948 while WI would have Headley, Stollmeyer, Gomez, Goddard, Christiani and the 3Ws!
 
Netherlands' performance is going down and down as we progress further, which is disappointing.

Headley and Everton Weekes are the only two Windies I know from that era. Was Clyde Walcott also a part of that team?
