Guest: Noor Javed, Star reporter
Did you know that Toronto used to be a leading city for cricket a few decades ago? As the sport continues to be one of the fastest growing sports in Canada, with an increasing number of immigrants from cricket-loving countries, the city is looking to regain lost cricketing glory and become a premiere city for the sport. There is a 20-year strategy to get there, but cricketers fear this long-term vision might be too late since facilities have deteriorated badly and players are already moving toward greener pitches in the suburbs. Toronto Star reporter Noor Javed explains the battle of the pitches.
