Talk about good ol walk down memory lane. Bangladesh was about to ger test status and i was contacted by the folks at Rivals to see if I'd be interested to run the Bangldesh cricket site for them. Off course, they did not have a Bangladesh site but figured every test nation (altough not finalised) should have their own website. Rivals wanted to compete with cricinfo at the time.

I was told that I can't run my other site (the one that got their attention in the first place). I was a poor foreign student and the idea of not having to pay for service and getting free pics from Rivals plus having a broader audience was something I didn't want to pass up on. It was a great relationship while it lasted. After about two years, they decided to cut down 7 of the 10 national team site and Bangladesh was one of those that they cut. All I am going to say is - I AM GLAD THEY DID.

As far as I can recall, started BC around February of 2002. It was running smooth up until the hacker got the best of us.
