If china and India plays...then more half of the world population will be watching this game..this is really amazing...What about the beautiful game football???

I bet in 5 -10 yrs China will be oen of the strongest teams in Cricket , they have lot of people

[jimmywrangles]

It takes around ten years for an international team to become competative in cricket.

Sri Lanka did it in ten and I'm betting China will do the same.

Good luck China.

@MrBenCaesar Lol India don't dominate cricket in any form anymore.

@thivakar

But it will take a lot longer for their skills to develop. I was watching my nephew's under 10s milo team play last week, and there was an 8 year old kid who was belting pull shots, reverse sweeps and hook shots for boundaries... When you grow up with a sport in your blood, you are at an advantage. Look at brazil and football

@KryptonianKangaroo i agree! china is at least 15 years behind all the top cricketing nations like india, australia, south africa, pakistan etc..

[TheAtlasFall]

China has a lot of talent.I guess we can see them in world cup soon.But no team will be able to be the strongest in all 3 formats of cricket within 5-10 years.England and Australia has been playing cricket for centuries,India and Pakistan playing for over 80 years yet they still have their own weak spots.

[TheAntoven]

i can actually see potential

[melglen1]

@thivakar maybe 100 years you still need talented athletes not just robots ,China are only good at robotic sports where untold number of forced hours training produce world champions . But I would doubt with there genetics that they would allow produce agreat pace battery like australia south africa england pakistan and west indies are able to do .Thats why no chinese man unless he cheats will ever win an olympic 100m or 200m race
