Guess what a over hyped game like Cricket is now added in Olympics but a power game like Powerlifting(3 lifts) is not added! Another game with just 2 lifts is added ie. Weightlifting since ages. Cricket is played hardly in 10 countries whereas Powerlifting is played in almost all countries and federation like IPF is a really the toughest one. Indian players are getting medals at IPF and there is a new wave of young talent. Cricket now get up on my nerves specially those who go and spend $$$ in IPL to see the matches which are FIXED! These crickers earn huge $$$ by doing Pan Masala or Jua ads including legends like Gavaskar and Sehwag! Pathetic!![]()
Cricket is a wealthy sport and would add millions of dollars to IOA's kitty which is not possible with power lifting.However the biggest hurdle in power-lifting is not having a unified governing body.
