Oh definitely, but only because it is played in those ****holes. I very much doubt it is 2nd on the list of participation sports in the world. Maybe 2nd on the list of watched sports, but even that, I am sceptical about.
Google it, I like this page which doesn't hold back it's contempt:

2. Cricket
Fans: 2.5 billion

Cricket’s popularity is in large part because of the British Empire and the East India Company, and their fervent determination to spread their culture across the world in their hopes of bringing ‘civilization’ to the different nations.

As terrible as the intent may have been, this has grown to be a vastly popular sport in the UK, Asia, Australia and Africa – basically the British Colonies of old.

It has a fan following of 2.5 billion people and is the second most viewed sport in the world.

About 19° so pretty pleasant
Anyways back to the football, Ireland ****ed already, France murdered the Dutch 4 nil although the Dutch sent 5 players home with a virus and De Jong and Bergwijn out injured, would have been a good time to play Holland instead we have the French on Monday! Greece had no problem dispatching Gibraltar 3 nil in the other match in our group.
