The correct answer is C. Cricket.<\/p>\n

Skiing, cycling, and archery are all included in the Olympic Games. Cricket is not.<\/p>\n

Skiing is a winter sport in which athletes slide down snow-covered slopes on skis. There are several different types of skiing, including downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, and ski jumping.<\/p>\n

Cycling is a sport in which athletes ride bicycles. There are several different types of cycling, including road cycling, track cycling, and mountain biking.<\/p>\n

Archery is a sport in which athletes shoot arrows at targets.<\/p>\n

Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field at the centre of which is a 22-yard (20-metre) pitch with a wicket at each end, each comprising two bails balanced on three stumps. The game proceeds when a player on the fielding team, called the bowler, “bowls” (propels) the ball from one end of the pitch towards the wicket at the other end. The batting side has one player at each end of the pitch, with the player at the opposite end of the pitch from the bowler aiming to strike the ball with a bat. The batting side scores runs when either the bowler unfairly bowls the ball to either side of the wicket (unfairly throwing the ball is called a “wide”), when either the ball reaches the boundary of the field, or when the fielding side commits a run-out. The fielding side’s aim is to prevent run-scoring and dismiss each player (so they are “out”, and are said to have “lost their wicket”).<\/p>\n

Cricket is one of the most popular sports in the world, with an estimated 2.5 billion fans. It is particularly popular in the Indian subcontinent, England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the West Indies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
