    We catch up with The Grade Cricketer Boys Ian and Sam, who embarked on The Grade American Road Trip. In between rodeos, cricket matches and steakhouses, they investigate if cricket really is the most un-American thing of all time or if it actually has untapped potential in the US. With cricket being the second most popular sport in the world which unites millions of fans across the globe from all walks of life (90% from India), the boys have also uncovered the surprising role the sport plays in connecting South Asian migrants across the world. This comes as new research from Wise reveals 84% of South Asian migrants living in New Zealand profess to be cricket fans. Then when it comes to watching sports, 46% of migrants support their country of origin, while 29% support New Zealand before their home country. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
