The search for cricket-loving Americans

Season 16, Episode 18: Coming to you from New York City! Or more specifically, Long Island. The ICC is hunting for US-born cricket converts, so we found a couple to sit under a tree in Eisenhower Park for a chat: US national panel umpire Bryan R. Caine, and sportswriter Mike Leboff. Also this week, another cricketer in hot water for gambling in a sport funded by gambling, and Nerd Pledge gives us a very rare Double Revisit, one year in the making.
