Cricket@Olympics, Discuss

Men love playing with balls. No matter the size of the ball, men simply love playing with balls. Kicking, hitting, smashing, dunking, lofting, juggling are all kinds of wildly popular formats when it comes to balls. A gentelman once noted that as you grow up, the size of the ball you play with goes smaller. So, given this inherent enthu in most people, how do you popularize cricket elsewhere in the world? Gilli suggested that we take the game to Olympics. Some other bloke suggested No! go with twenty20, i say WTF? We cannot retain attendance with the regular teams, and you want to get other teams? Remember, when west indies was one of the greatest? I heard that most of the carribean guys go for baski these days, since it pays more money. True. Despite our unbelievable population, we only produce a Sachin in a zillion decades. Why? No money in cricket. Till now. With IPL having a sensational start, i hope we will be able to see more stars.

P.S: What happened to all the IPL Stars? Why aren't they on the list of probables?
