Not much skill involved? Are you nuts? You try mkaing a 40 yard diving catch with 2 guys draped all over you. You try running the length of the field with 11 guys chasing you. You try throwing an oblong ball 50 yards downfield with a margin of error of about 18 inches. I could go on and on.

You could.
The same sort of skill required in rubgy, football, basketball, whatever.


And why are you bitching? You are the one who asked for the "American" reasons for liking the game. I am giving them to you. If you want to debate the reasons for Americans not liking cricket then we can really get into it.

Well...
To cut a long story short, I forgot what my original post as about.
Sorry.
And who said I liked cricket?
But sure - then we can get into the reasons for no one liking baseball
