Hungarian cricket prepares to go international

Gergo Racz, writing in the Wall Street Journal, says cricket isn’t as popular among the Hungarian youth as football, water polo or handball, but the Hungary cricket league has been making headway over the years.

[Hungary] aims to become an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council in 2012. The Hungary cricket league has been in existence since 2007, with seven teams and about 150 adult players. There’s also a national squad, where two of the players are women.
