The 1912 Olympic Games (officially Games of the V Olympiad) are set to be hosted by Stockholm, the capital city of Sweden. The authorities have invested a great deal in the Stockholms Olympiastadion to make it a playable venue for cricket matches, though the boundaries remain a great deal shorter than most proper cricketing venues around the world. The country of Sweden is finally ready to glimpse the game of cricket for the very first time.
A total of 12 nations have been confirmed as participants for the cricket tournament by the IOC, the highest team count for cricket in the Olympics till date. Every team to participate in cricket during the 1908 Olympic Games will continue to do so here, while one makes a comeback after nearly a decade and three others make their Olympic cricket debuts. They are (in alphabetical order):
Argentina,
Australasia,
Belgium,
Burma,
Canada,
Egypt,
Great Britain,
India,
Netherlands,
South Africa,
United States and
West Indies.
There was initially talk of the host nation assembling together a cricket team of their own, but that never materialised. Neither did the long suggested return of the Mixed Team that played in both 1900 and 1904, but with disastrous results.
Also for the first time since cricket's introduction to the Olympic Games in 1896, the IOC will be using a single elimination/knockout format for the cricket tournament after taking a leaf out of football's book. Every match shall now have meaning and a single defeat means elimination from the tournament. Let the Games begin!
