[Nasif]

We would like to announce a live chat session with the players (names of the participating players will be announced right before the start time) at BanglaCricket Chat. This will be after Bangladesh vs West Indies match tomorrow

5:00am - 5:30am Bangladesh Time (morning of April 20th)

To participate in live discussion, please log onto BanlgaCricket Chat at

If you are want to use your own IRC client then connect to server irc.cricket.org and come to #banglacricket. irc://irc.cricket.org/banglacricket

Rules

• This will be interactive chat where you can ask questions to the players. The chat will be moderated, I will be moderating tomorrow's chat session. You will have to send the questions to me privately during the chat.
• BCB media manager Rabeed Imam will type in the messages on players' behalf.
• As the chatroom will be moderated, you will only be able to read messages. If you write anything, others will not see it (even if it appears on your window).
• The chat session will run for approximately 30 mins, thus each member will be allowed a limited number questions (this depends on response and participation).
• Your name will be credited when your question is passed along.
• Please decide your questions beforehand (unless you want to limit your question to hi and hello; and we will not take too many of those).
• Chat transcript will be posted in the forum later.

We would encourage all members to come in to the chat room tomorrow and make this even successful. Show your support for team Bangladesh and congratulate them personally for a successful World Cup.

We would like thank Mr. Rabeed Imam for making this opportunity for us; and thanks to Tehsin bhai for initiating the process.

We hope this will be first of many such chat events on BanglaCricket.

[Nasif]

Also, I will advice the members to test out the chatroom beforehand and make sure you can connect properly. Especially those who haven't used BanglaCricket chat before, please try it beforehand and sort out if there is any connection problem. We may not be able to help you much while the chat is going on.

Even better. We don't have to hear your lame prem-alaps.

[zahid]

You will have to send the questions to me privately during the chat.

How do we do that? PM you, Nasif bhai?

[Omio]

If we can do voice chat, would be really great..

Make sure have latest Java Runtime installed. http://www.sun.com/java

If it still doesn't work, download mIRC at http://www.mirc.com, install it and type in the commands:
/server irc.cricket.org
/join #banglacricket

Members, when I proposed something like this everyone here said no, no no that idea.

In the chatroom you can send private message. Just double click on my name and type your message in the opened window.

[SMHasan]

Good initiative.

[ialbd]

great news.... will be a success for sure..

[cricket_pagol]

Nasif bhai, I won't be able to join the chat... so here is my question.
Why does Mushy call sakib as "Moina"?

[sadi]

Someone should save the whole chat and publish it later on. So whoever misses the chat don't miss what was asked and answered during the chat.

[Tigers_eye]

Nafis bhai,
I already posted my 1st question in the Tehsin bhai's thread. Hope mine would be the first after the "Hi, hello" and game performance questions.

I may not be able to make it on time so just giving you heads up.
Thanks.

You think any player will show up and face up to the fans after the same batting circus display?
