Both dumb ideas. No point including sports for which the Olympics would not be pinnacle (see Tennis, Football/Soccer etc)....

Rugby has about as much justification as cricket as far as extent of participation, if not less (given at least highly populous India and Pakistan play the latter). Would love to see African etc states vote down both...
