cool
well cricket has been played since the 1800's here, and was pretty much bought over by the poms so its popu;arity is inevitable. and plus you'll have much more fun watching a one day international as opposed to baseball or basketball, the atmosphere is umcomparable.

yep, cricket has a much better atmosphere- i like it bcoz of all the tactic that it involves- as well as all the physics, maths and chemistry that is involved....as a guy on the tv put it "u can never get bored of watching cricket".

baseball here in aus is not as small as many ppl would think
u have no idea how many scouts from minor league (us) that come here and watch kids as young as 12 play baseball and snap them up with a multi-million dollor contract
the problem with baseball here is the lack of exposure and the problem of allowing viewer to watch Major league..
of course, unless u have espn
