Cricket, golf and basketball.
Before football it is cricket
Baseball
i think cricket
As a professional sport, it'd be cricket.
As the sport most played by people, it'd be badminton.
(To people mentioning baseball here, step out of the US please. The worlds envelops the US, not the other way around.)
P.S. Please don't say that Japan and Cuba play baseball too and hence start an argument. You'd fall on your faces if I started naming countries for cricket and badminton.
