I do feel that Cricket will soon gain importance in USA and the person behind it will be none other than Mr. Barack Obama. Don’t dismiss this as the wishful thinking of some one who hails from a Cricket Crazy land. No at all. The other day, he revealed two things; one was that he can cook “Keema” and ‘dal’ and the other was his love for Cricket and he owes these two qualities to his Pakistani friends who were his room mates during his college days.
And, because he is a Cricket fan it could be taken for granted that he would have enjoyed the just conclued Twenty – 20 in which Pakistan emerged victorious.
Of course it is not as easy as saying “I woke up one morning and found myself famous” but still, it can co – exist with rugby, soccer and basket ball and enter the international arena and make cricket more popular.
