That explains why Cricket is not played in the USA. In facts, "cheating" of sorts is enshrined in Baseball. One can "steal" bases. It seems that here in the USA if there is not a bit of "cheating" tolerated in a game, US fans lose interest.
That type of cheating beats grabbing a handful of the other guys shorts and pulling on them.
