There is even a US International team - they played in the ICC  competition that was staged in the UK two summers ago. Look on the ICC site - they would be able to provide links to associate member sites, and I'm sure the US is one of these.

there is one by my house but it isn't called extra innings, it's okay because unlike at a park, you can actually find 20-30 guys and play a game but it's indoors which really sucks. think of you playing basketball in your kitchen with the trash can, it gets that exciting.

I have been waiting for that one.  I thought with the WNBA starting that if it succeeded, it would show that there is an interest.  But, so far I havent' seen it.  I see an answer above says there is a league, but it sounds so small.  I'd like to see a lot more teams and coverage.\n I have been a baseball fan since I was 8 and then discovered fastpitch in college.  I loved it!!  I actually find it to be a more exciting game than baseball now.  So much more small-ball skills are needed.  It's fast paced and it's a sport where it is possible to legitimately hit over .500 if you're a good slapper or drag bunter.  I definitely prefer small ball to cheap easy home runs that dominate the MLB today.

I agree that other countries are pretty much on the same level as the United States when it comes to baseball.  I don't think it's embarrassing at all.  It's just the normal evolution of the game world wide.  It had to happen one day.  Just look at basketball, another American game.  We don't dominate basketball either on the world circuit anymore.  There are great athletes all over the world in all sports.  One day I'd like to see a real world series.  The champions from all the leagues across the world play in a world championship tournament and crown a real "World Champion."

Dude, it's difficult to summarize in this segment. Here's a very brief take:\nAustralia scored 434 in a one-day match against South Africa and.... they lost. Amazing game. You can check scorecard by clicking the link http://uk.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2005-06/AUS_IN_RSA/SCORECARDS/AUS_RSA_ODI5_12MAR2006.html\n\nI am sure there are some TV channels in USA that show cricket matches. The ODIs are pay-per-views, but you can watch the highlights.

I completely agree. Indian cricket is like English football. yeah sure you are alright, but the public talks them selves up way too much

You dumb ass.. first you should know that baseball was invented from cricket. Even when the ball bounces it still comes at you about 90+ miles per hour. So its hard to predict how high the ball will bounce.. So cricket is not a sissy sport you are a sissy sitting there talking crap about a sport which you are not man enough to play..

football is really popular in all parts of Bangladesh. especially in rural areas and villages. but unfortunately India and Bangladesh are not in the standards of  international football. so its cricket for us

This is the most upseting thing about India's Cricket team...their fans and the people who support them. Sachin, along with the rest of the sqaud are playing good cricket but the reason they aren't winning is because of the rise of international superstars. The Indian Cricket team needs to look at young talent more often then relying hevaily on three or four big name players. In a magazine I read while in Bombay (India Today) I read an article about a bowler named VJ Sharma who was considered a very good prospect to the team at the age of 19. Now, he is 21 and playing for (I belive its England). He is one of those few talents who packed their bags and decided to play for someone else who reconzied their talents.\n\nAnother thing that ticks me off is the politicains who suggested that the players be paid less if they do not perform as well. I laughed so hard when they said that, I mean c'mon their Indian politicans who get paid and make tons of illicit money and fall asleep in Senate meetings who are suggesting the players get paid less if they loose a game or two.\n\nBasically, its not the teams fault and it is not the coach's fault either, its the recruting...I bet you their are players out their who are very good but do not get a chance to play due to the fact that some current players have connection with politicians and team sponseres (sorry for the speeling error)\n\nITS TIME WE START LOOKING AT OUR OWN INDIAN TALENT AND ALLWING YOUND PLAYERS TO TAKE OVER THE ROLE AS BATSMAN OR BOWLERS, ETC.\n\n\nTo answer your queston I belive he is not a disruvtive image to the indian team...

I LOVE CRICKET! However, I think if you go by the number of people, you have to say The Super Bowl(American Football). If you go by the popularity throughout the world(meaning the number of countries that like this sport), then I would say cricket.

We lost because we don't have the talent that the other countries have. As to stop calling it the "World" Series I should mention that the best players in the world play MLB even though they're not from the US. The World Series does in fact imply the "World" because of the diversity of players in MLB, even though it's played only in North America.

In Pakistan,India,Sri Lanka & Bangladesh there are no sporting alternatives that ordinary people can relate to.These countries have not excelled in the more exciting ball games such as soccer & tennis thanks to lack of infrastructure & governmental support.Yet cricketers continue to emerge from complete obscurity to superstardom.Almost every boy grows up playing cricket.The extreme behaviour pattern of people in these countries also contributes to the craze.
