Why don't you hear about Cricket being played in America?

I have heard of this game, and actually really like it, but I don't hear anything about it from anyone else in America. I have not been everywhere in the country, but American sports are pretty obvious so I don't think I missed out where it's probably being played if it was.

Why is it not big in America?

a big welcomeeeeeeeee.  stop by often and you will hear plenty of american cricket!

Historically there is an American connection but Americans Sports are quite insular....and appear to want the quicker formats.

T20s might catch on and I have a friend and FC cricketer playing in a T20 Florida league.
