Cricket in Argentina: A 200-year-old tradition looking to make a comeback


It’s Argentina’s national cricket team, and they represent a tradition that goes back over 200 years. The Argentine men’s national cricket team dominates the South American Cricket Championship, lifting it for a record 12th time in 2023, ten more than anyone else. Argentina is one of 96 associate members of the International Cricket Council (ICC), meaning that cricket is played there, but it does not qualify as a full member. “In those days, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) used to visit with a team that was virtually the English national team. “We have important clubs that played cricket long ago and have grass and synthetic fields,” said Pereyra.
