    I have actually never watched a game of cricket... how popular is it in the UK? By the way, very cool video. They have the last bat Babe Ruth hit a home run with? Pretty cool.

    It's nice to see the interaction bewteen the two sports.

    Cricket it massive in UK. Football (Soccer) is our Winter Passion replaced by Cricket in the Summer.

    It is huge in the Commonwealth countries especially in sub continent eg India/Pakistan etc. The tension between those two countries is translated into cricket and makes the game electric

    If you can find a cricket TWENTY20 game on the net you will enjoy.

    (Cricket has different variations, like Pool with 8 ball etc)
