but these sports are uncomparable to cricket in terms of popularity here, frankly speaking
u seldom see baseball and basketball news in the sport news but mainly cricket, cricket dominates the aussie sport news

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". :D

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
