Crowds at the USA fixtures in this T20 WC


Recommended Posts

There is a sparse crowd for the India v Bangladesh warm-up.  In other countries any India games sells out.  This does not bode well for interest in the USA for the game.  There's going to a lot of barely attended games I think.  India vs Pakistan will be well attended but it will be the only one.

North America is not into cricket. They don't even care about global sports such as soccer/football or F1. Only desi expats will watch cricket. They should've held the WC in West Indies, or SA. The US games would be empty seats, especially for non-India games.

NYC Indo Pak match will get a good expat crowd. Other than that...??

Don't think there will be much crowd except Pak game

 

T20 is made for night viewing. Day games are boring AF

But Indian TV audience requirements takes precedence...... bhad me gayi sari duniya

Sunday Morning mass for locals is main reason... Decent crowd came to watch D/N game of Oman vs Namibia.  Ridiculous to host T20 games in Morning time lol

 

ICC is stupid to host day games in the name of viewership.

WTF is wrong with these people?
If you want to build interest for T20s in a new region, at least get the timing right. Early morning on a Monday? Seriously WTF
I would have scheduled matches on Fridays - Sundays in the evening else don't bother.  This is a just futile

It's targeted towards Indian market as this is prime time in India. ICC is a useless organization who would struggle to organize a p*ss off in a brewery. They wasted Sunday by going for WI vs PNG. They should've played 2 big teams on Sunday but wasted the weekend for a sh*tty match-up. If I didn't know any better, I would think ICC is trying their best to intentionally jeopardize growth of cricket globally.

I think it's time ICC realizes that cricket is a sub-continental sport, and that's where it belongs.

all ICC games should take place in india, and it can slowly become a 3-4 nation sport
