Sure, maybe in England since they don't do any of those, but in North America it's pretty popular and little to none play cricket in North America.
+ I don't see any England players making it big in Hockey or Baseball either so it goes both ways.
Not really, maybe some yeah but most were fairly good with money and just worked on there sport and did what they can to improve etc. It's all about devoting your time to it rather then being lazy and not going to the gym or something. You also need a passion for the game if you wanna make it big.

Lool you completely missed the point about the word 'Global'. Cricket is more widespread than baseball and foolsball - fact. Major Cricket nations: England, Australia, West Indies, South Africa, India, Pakistan, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, and Zimbabwe. And these are just the major nations, not every. Baseball and foolsball can't boast about being widespread. Your opinion is narrow minded to simply 'North America' which isn't much on a global scale.
The top football players in the world, historically even, have always come from the poorest of backgrounds, and i'm not talking England poor. From poverty struck villages in Brazil, Argentina, Portugaul. I dunno where you get your facts from about "Most were fairly good with money". Yea, after 12-17 years playing football with makeshift balls on the worst terrain and if they're lucky, with shoes.
