Excellent to claim the medal after some impressive public support, but we really did make it difficult for ourselves. Full credit to the Canadians, though - for 80% of the game, they were probably the better side. Shouldn't be long before they are medal contenders.

We've got an ageing team, too, so that might well be our last shot at a medal for quite some time.

Cricket at the Olympics
Paris 1900
263px-JOParis_1900.jpg

After being a success in the 1896 Olympic Games with an all new 1-day single innings format, cricket was unanimously retained as a sporting event for the 1900 Olympic Games set to take place in the beautiful city of Paris.

Participation has doubled, with the team count going up from 4 to 8 as Argentina (

), the host nation France (

), Netherlands* (
22px-Flag_of_the_Netherlands.svg.png
) and New Zealand (

) look to make their mark in a game they have never taken seriously until now.



*Netherlands were replaced by the Mixed Team due to their last minute withdrawal from the event.

Summary

The participation in cricket doubled for the 1900 Games after a well organized tournament in the first ever modern Olympics in 1896. Argentina, the host nation France, Mixed Team and New Zealand joined Australia, Canada, Great Britain and United States for an 8-team tournament spread across three rounds followed by knockouts. The Mixed team featuring players from twelve different non-participating nations came in as a replacement for the Netherlands who unsportingly withdrew from the event after their bid to co-host the Games with France fell through.

Australia and Great Britain, the only two participating nations with Test status stood head and shoulders above the rest by winning all of their group matches. The former were put to the test by rookies New Zealand and Argentina, but the latter ruthlessly dominated all in their path. Still, it was the Australians who a Gold medal instead of Great Britain who choked for the second successive time in an Olympic final to wind up with Silver.

The United States who had won Gold in 1896 settled for Bronze this time after winning a closely fought playoff against North American rivals Canada. Both teams were knocked out in the semi-finals by Great Britain and Australia respectively. Canada finished on 4th place which was actually a very good effort in contrast to their similar result albeit in completely different circumstances four years previously.

While none of the four newcomers could make it past the group stages, a couple of them certainly impressed. Argentina did no disgrace to themselves by fighting hard in all of their matches. They almost beat Australia while defending a paltry 87 and finally beat New Zealand in their last match of the tournament. Hosts France were completely and utterly humiliated on their cricketing debut, but improved a great deal in their last couple of matches - even registering a victory over the Mixed Team.

The Mixed Team and New Zealand both finished winless despite having some fairly talented players in their ranks. The Mixed Team had players good enough to win a Silver/Bronze medal but lack of unity in their side led to their downfall. New Zealand on the other hand stuck to the same faltering lineup and inexplicably snubbed their best player. No team could be more deserving of the wooden spoon.


Best players

Johnny+Tyldesley+new.jpg

Those who thought WG Grace's records from the 1896 Games would stand for quite a while were proven wrong by Johnny Tyldesley in the very next edition. The right-hander from Lancashire put up scores of 96, 48, 19, 57* and 53 from his five outings at the No 3 position. He had already overtaken Grace's record of 182 by 38 runs after his fourth outing and his batting average of 68.25 was country miles ahead of the former's 45.50.


William-Lockwood.jpg
Four years after 1896, Bill Lockwood reprised his role as the leading wicket-taker in an Olympic cricket tournament. His 14 wickets from 5 matches at an astonishing average of 9.29 bettered his previous haul of 9 at 12.78. This time he also did well in the final, but the result was the same as before.

220px-George_Stuart_Patterson.jpg

George Patterson was brought back from the wilderness by the Americans who desperately needed some solidity at the top of the order. He lived up to his reputation by scoring the most number of runs (115 at 38.33) for them. His 8 wickets at 11.63 was the icing on the cake. However, his performances weren't backed up by the rest of his team-mates and thus America couldn't reach the same highs in cricket as before.

Having to fill the boots of the unmatchable Jack Blackham, Australia's incumbent wicket-keeper James Kelly did quite a credible job behind the stumps with 8 dismissals to his name. He held on to the ones that mattered most in a tense finale which went Australia's way.

Teams confirmed for St. Louis 1904

The team count for cricket shall remain at 8 for the 1904 Olympic Games set to be held in St. Louis, Missouri, in the United States. However, four teams from the 1900 Games - namely Argentina, Canada, France and New Zealand shall not be participating this time around. Ireland, Netherlands, South Africa and the West Indies will come in as replacements.

It is understood that Argentina and New Zealand failed to send over any of their athletes for the 1904 Games. Meanwhile, the NOCs of Canada and France fell out with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) leading to their exclusion in favor of Ireland and the Netherlands.

This will be the first time either of Ireland, South Africa and the West Indies will be participating in the Olympic Games. The Netherlands will also be participating in cricket for the first time in the Olympics after near misses in 1896 and due to their last minute withdrawal in 1900.

Well.. there's nothing left to say. It was an easy chase but the batting made a mess of it, Just want to congratulate Australia(@themusketeer ) well done mate :thumbs. That's the second time that I've lost the most crucial game of the tournament.


Would love to continue with Great Britain hoping for the gold medal this time around.

I'll give them to you if @Samuels backs out. I recall he declared interest in managing the West Indies team as far back as when I was running the 1896 season.
I will play the sidekick. :) I would appreciate if you pen down and send a list of probables to us. I will step in if @Yonga dishes out a horrible squad.
