Islandstats.com can confirm that the ICC Americas Division One Twenty20 Tournament scheduled for May of this year will be held in Indianapolis.
The Midwestern city best known for its Basketball and auto racing is gearing up for a proper game of cricket — the ball-and-bat sport most Americans know only from British films or by surfing through international sports channels.
In 2013, Indianapolis was to spend $6 million to equip one of its parks with a premier Cricket Field, and space for Gaelic Football, Rugby, Hurling and other sports mainly popular overseas.
It is understood that the tournament featuring Canada, Suriname, Bermuda and the United States of America will be played on a Turf Wicket.
