Thats clearly an ad, although with the recent crackdown in place, I wonder what the ICC have to say about that bowling action. Okay, but after I saw this I looked up Argentina Cricket, and by the look of things Cricket is a big thing in Argentina. Okay well that is misleading, lets say cricket is bigger than most people would have thought in Argentina.

They have won the South American Cricket Championship held every two years (for the most part sometimes 3, and sometimes held consecutive years), since 1995, 8 times. Chile are another consistent team ... they have won the tournament only once, but have been runners-up six times.

Its gotten to a point where Argentine Celebrities atleast know about the sport. Here is Maradona -


Here are some vids on Cricket in outher South American Countries. Brazil -


Colombia -


As cricket fans we have long looked to the US to be the next big cricketing breakthrough, but it seems, South America could be the one more likely to provide a breakthrough in that regard.
