Football Dominated City Barcelona To Construct First Cricket Ground
Soon Barcelona is preparing to build its first cricket ground. Reportedly, the citizens in an initiative have offered the plan to invest $1.4 million to build a cricket pitch. The ground will likely be built on a hilltop location standing side to Barcelona's Olympic stadium. Approximately, there are 400 cricketers divided into 25 men’s and women’s teams in the city. “We will have our field here,” said team coach Shahbaz Shauqad.
