This is a good appointment for the Chinese, it definately shows there is vision for the game over there. I'm sure that he will help to establish the game in china, and hopefully its eventual growth into the mainstream of chinese sports. Who know maybe we will see them in a world cup in the not too distant future.

The Chinese tried to field a competitor in every event of the Beijeng Olympics to win a medal.Let's get a cricket presence at the 2012 Olympics and China willdevelop the game and field a Team of its own initiative, but the cricket world keeps using horses instead of engines to grow the game, hence www.Cricket2012Games.com 's petition.
