Nick Hockley, the interim CEO of Cricket Australia, said: “The Gabba is one of the most important, iconic and historic cricket grounds in Australia and we are delighted that the Queensland Government has agreed to a major redevelopment should Brisbane win the right to host the 2032 Olympic Games.”

However, South Korea’s Seoul mentioned sending the International Olympic Committee a recommendation for co-hosting the  2031 Olympic games along with North Korea’s capital Pyongyang.

The Tokyo Olympics which was postponed earlier is likely to start on June 23, 2021. 2024 Olympics will be hosted in Paris, While Los Angeles will organize the 2028 Olympic games.
