The Laughing Bluebird said:I concede that Bangladesh do indeed have a test side - they just don't win any matches by the look of it! Incidentally, football is apparently the most popular specatator sport in Bangladesh. That surprised me as I would've imagined it would've been cricket.
I got the idea that cricket was the fifth most popular spectator sport in Australia from an Australian government website. They listed the most popular sports (and gave attendance figures) as being Australian rules, horse racing, motor sports, rugby league, cricket and football in that order. Rugby union was further down the list.

You can't say that horse and dog racing exist PURELY because of gambling! There are millions of people worldwide who are involved in both sports who never have a bet.
You're spot on about motor racing though. That does exist simply in order to make cricket look interesting. FACT.
