Cricket in America!

was Bart the inventor of the swing bowling:

Quote:Philadelphian fast bowler, J. B. "Bart" King, who toured England several times with a side from Philadelphia that held its own in first-class matches against the English counties, and even was top of the national first-class bowling averages for the English summer. His speciality was a fast inswinger, pitched well up, often bowled when the batsman was expecting the outswinger, which would swing inwards very late and generally hit the stumps or the pads: the very same tactic perfected a hundred years later by such luminaries as Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram.

Cricket in its current state will never take off big in America among non-caribbean people. America has baseball which is by far much more attractive to youngsters and sponsors alike.
