Fairplex has an existing platform, built in 1932 and contains 8,000 spectators. It should be renovated this year, but is not yet sure that it will be incorporated into stadium plans.
The site previously organized concerts between 40,000 and 60,000 people.
The International Cricket Council (ICC), the International Olympic Committee (CIO) and the 2028 organizing committee worked together on the choice of the place.
However, it is understood that the organizers of the 2028 and the IOC had the last word.
The president of the ICC, Jay Shah, said that he was looking forward to collaborating “with the IOC to make” the cricket a huge success there “.
“It will be a fantastic opportunity to expand traditional limits when it appears at the Olympic Games in the T20 format with a quick and exciting rate that should appeal to new audiences,” said Shah.
The prospect of a temporary place for matches will again raise concerns concerning the use of locations without appointment.
For the T20 2024 World Cup, co-organized by the United States, a catchy stadium of 34,000 places was built in New York.
However, the land without appointment at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium of Eisenhower Park were examined on a meticulous exam after having played badly.
The only previous appearance of cricket at the Olympic Games took place in Paris 1900, when Great Britain won by 158 points against France in a single final, after the Netherlands and Belgium withdrew.
The Cricket Board of Directors in England and Wales would have had preliminary discussions with Cricket Scotland in terms of plans to align a TeamGB team, with the ICC game to determine the qualification process for the games.
