Americans are taking notice of one of Earth's most popular sports: cricket

Americans are taking notice of one of the Earth's most popular sports. This week, Team USA had a shocking win over Pakistan in the Cricket World Cup ��� marking the first time for the U.S to compete in and co-host the tournament. A massive $30 million stadium was built in New York, which hosts the match between India and Pakistan.

[@kanakTheGold]

@@Saggitariusrising Only one correction - "Pakistan is one of the best team in sport". Only to novice first time players, in recent past of about a decade. In reality they are the minnows of professional International events right now. The true best teams are Australia, India, England, South Africa, New Zealand (these teams consistently feature in the finals of all major ICC events- Test Championship, 50 over WC, 20 over WC, Champions Trophy). Then there are teams like West Indies, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe- who pack a punch and probably would take a while to consistently win against the best ones. Then we have Ireland, Bangladesh, Scotland and Netherlands. Pakistan is their equivalent and have lost to all teams mentioned before, which the top tier teams haven't. So why are they glorified? Media frenzy (radical islamic-left connection) and overseas pakistan community have contributed to make the actual team larger than what they currently are. Hope that helps!

I believe Cricket will overtake baseball in America in the immediate future, and wouldn't be surprised if USA would win - both on the men's and women's ĺeagues. Team USA has been unstoppable so far, well done.

[@thinadlamini4671]

Well if America had continued being under British rule like their neighbor up North (Canada) sports such as Rugby, Soccer and Cricket would have been popular imo.

[@nac5901]

Cricket isn't particularly popular in Canada now, AFAIK; but it continued to be popular in the US up until the civil war, when baseball took over because they could play it quickly and without carefully curated pitches.

[@Shaktiman144]

Even baseball is created by British not Americans It is just not popular in Britain

[@steven.events]

Those sports became most popular in the 1990s onwards. Base that on Commonwealth immigration, cable/satellite TV, and the relative novelty of the World Cups. Canadian football is still more popular than Rugby, and arguably Soccer. MLS is an American league. Canada is still trying to popularize a sustainable domestic league of its own.

[@sarban1653]

As someone who grew up in a nation obsessed with cricket, I can see a market for limited overs cricket. Test cricket might be a tougher sell. Aussie kids aren't as laser-focused on cricket and football ad they were in previous generations but the Subcontinent is about as fanatical as any sport could hope for. I wish them luck fostering a very different sport in the US.

[@muthias4582]

While I'm happy CBS did this, I'm also annoyed they didn't put in a simple basic explanation of the game for a American audience. Basically its similar to a baseball game where instead of 9 innings, its one very big inning taking up the whole game. Both teams get as many runs during their turn before all their batters are out. The first team that goes builds their lead then the 2nd goes and tries to overcome that lead for the automatic win the moment they do.

[@abdulbttr]

I do think think Cricket has the potential to become much bigger in the US if you look at history in the US, Soccer started becoming a big participation sport in the 70's until it leveled off in the 2000's when it started becoming big in most of the country if you did not fit the the big three athletically you did not play team sports Soccer changed that. The country has gotten bigger and now sports like Lacrosse , Rugby and Cricket can do the same as soccer did. Cricket and Rugby like Soccer also have the marketing advantage of being big globally.
