So the cricket T20 world cup started in the West Indies and United States yesterday.

Delighted to see that the opening match replicated the first ever international sporting fixture - UNited States v Canada.

Easy USA win

Surprised to see the American team are not all Asian guys. There's some corner of the country where cricket is a thing?

I remember seeing there was a baltic cricket tournament some years ago which was basically just first gen immigrants playing each other.

Not that I know of. Everywhere I have been cricket being played it was always Indian and Pakistani immigrants.
