Bows and arrows to replace wickets in an event likely to be dominated by South Korea

It's been 112 years since cricket made a brief Olympic Games appearance. At the London Games, the sport will still be absent, but its spiritual home of Lord's will at least provide a support role when it hosts the archery competition.

The sport, which once again will be dominated by South Korea, has already had its test event at the famous venue, albeit played out on a very chilly week in October last year in front of empty stands.
