Indian batting legend Sachin Tendulkar has called for cricket to become an Olympic sport.
The former Indian captain and sport’s all-time leading run-scorer feels the Twenty20 format would work best in the Summer Games.
“I think it’s a great idea and I reckon T20 is the best format for it. It’s the most acceptable format for people who don’t have any knowledge about cricket or the ones who need an introduction to cricket,” he told BBC World Service when asked about his views on the matter.
“The game is over in three hours and it’s like any sport,” he said.
