Two decades or so years ago, when I first came to the USA, not too many people here would have said that cricket was anything but an insect. I bet the situation has not changed much since then. What has changed, though, is that there is something called the internet, the great leveller, something that has <a href="http://www.thomaslfriedman.com/bookshelf/the-world-is-flat">flattened the world</a> even.
So, here we are, in the 21st century, and now Cricket owns the pride of place on Yahoo's website. Not only is there a site devoted to it, but it is also uber prominent in that it has found itself a niche <em>outside </em>of <em>Sports</em>.
