  Let's see, we have Portugal, Australia, Chile and the UK all playing Cricket. I guess that  makes sense since a Cricket game can take many days and you all could travel around and play the same game against each other. LOL. Now THAT would be a true World Series.

  I'm afraid Americans would get bored real quick, though. You could use a snow shovel and you still wouldn't be able to hit a major league fastball from that distance. ;-)

  Cricket is loved all over the world...  The recognised nations are Australia, England, India, Sri Lanka, Sth Africa, West Indies, Pakistan, N.Zealand and... Zimbawe ,who are banned due to politics :( 

  The Test Matches can take upto 5 days to play, sometimes finishing in 3/4 days. There is the shorter game.. 50 overs each team, 1 day comp.. and the 20 overs each team, which will take a few hours.

  No offence, but 8 countries is hardly the world.

  208 countries, there's a world game.
