‘Maybe the time will be right for Ben’, says Team GB chiefMike England targets 60-plus British medals at Paris 2024
The head of Team GB says he would love Ben Stokes to go for gold at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics – and predicted the England cricketer’s presence would elevate the entire British team.
Mark England, Team GB’s chef de mission for the Paris 2024 Games, hailed the news that cricket would be part of the LA Games – as first revealed by the Guardian – as a “fantastic decision” before turning his thoughts to the prospect of seeing the 32-year-old Stokes leading the charge in 2028.
