A Bright Future for Cricket in the US

The National Cricket League’s Sixty Strikes tournament, a fast-paced version of the game designed to replicate the thrill of cricket in a shorter format, was introduced as a new and engaging way for Americans to connect with the sport. The stars encouraged students to follow the tournament and perhaps one day become part of the next generation of cricketers.

NCL President Arun Agarwal said, “The energy and potential we saw at Franklin D. Roosevelt High School today was incredible and Principal Abram Joseph has a vision for this at his school.” “Cricket has a bright future here in the US, and it’s experiences like these that can inspire young people to take an interest in the sport. We want to make sure every student knows that the sky is the limit if they put in the effort.
