USA's latest Civil War

Kenya is not the only team whose progress has recently been hampered by a nasty civil war. Cricket in the United States - one of the first countries ever to play an international match, has been going through it's own strife recently. While Kenya is hopefully now on the road to full recovery under Cricket Kenya, the Americans are still slugging it out. For the good of the game over there, it is to be hoped that the Major League Cricket faction is the one that wins out. During Kenya's turmoil, it was the eventual intervention of the ICC that lead to the ousting of the KCA by Cricket Kenya. It would be nice if the ICC would take a little less time in sorting out the mess in America. MLC look like they could provide a bright future for the sport there. It will never rival baseball, but they have the potential to put forward a very strong team in the years ahead with the number of players they could muster. On another note, it would be great to see Cricket Kenya launch an official site. My hat is in the ring for this, but as yet, no news. Fingers crossed eh!
