Cricket World Cup vs. World Baseball Classic

[BCWWF]

From each side, what do you think each event means in terms of the other sport?

My inclination is that cricket has always been predominantly a Commonwealth game and that its appeal has pretty much reached its peak on a global perspective. I feel like baseball is growing and has potential to create new markets in a way that cricket does not.

By this I don't mean that cricket is small or is going to see its appeal shrink in a place like India. I just mean people in a given country are more likely to pick up baseball before picking up cricket.

Do you agree or disagree that cricket has limited potential compared to baseball worldwide? Do you think the World Baseball Classic combined with the popularity of MLS will eventually draw fans away from cricket and toward baseball?
