Radio Bangladesh will have the matches live. Try to homeviewbangladesh site and see if they still have the radio BD in there. This is great news for many.

The Bangladesh Betar realaudio link on homeviewbangladesh does not work. Even if it did, I think the HMVB bandwidth would quickly be overwhelmed by all the people who would want to listen in.

It would've been great though...there's a special charm in listening to Bangla commentary.

Yes, I miss the days of Chowdhury Zafarullah Shorafot. He became quite a celebrity on the teststatus (banglacricket's predecessor) message board a few years back with some classic Shorafotisms such as:

"Naam o Nkala, dekhteo Kala!

The veteran members will remember that one I'm sure.

I still remember the commentary from that one match where the Bangladesh football team beat South Korea in Dhaka Stadium. I think it was toufiq aziz khan or khoda bakth smidha (sp?):

"Shaaper motho chchobol diye, head koray, sheikh mohammad aslam banglar dosh kooti manusher asha pooron korlen."

Yes, thats vintage Khoda Baksh Mridha. Toufiq Aziz Khan died by the way, a couple of years back.

Good old Shorbot, oops, I meant Shorafot. Will miss him throughout the cup.

"Nkala, nameo kala rong eo kala" -- Shorafot.

Thanks Sham, for reminding the classic.
