60p per min??? Okay, that's a concern.
How much did we spend in the pub yesterday? Oh I forgot, that doesn't count.

I know calling the numbers cost around 60 P per minute but we could have used this opportunity for highlighting BanglaCricket not for anything else.

I really doubt that. From Spain by using Sat receiver I can't watch this channel. Last week I was in Zurich for one day. I tried there as well. On the other hand, can you tell me how many UK based desi people watch this channel regularly? As a British born Bangladeshi atleast I know the truth. They don't have proper website as well. Most of their links don't even work.

60p is not the main issue. Main issue is number of viewers.

Well, I was on the show and I had to answer the phone calls from all over the Europe. You can watch a single show to verify that.
Otherwise you can ask anyone who watched the show. About viewers, they are the only television channel that are covering most part of the Europe. In UK, I guess they have more viewers than Channel S, the only other channel.
Now regarding website, they are a Bangladeshi channel, even NTV, Channel i do not have a proper website. We are way behind to be tech savvy or using websites.
Now, it's not a matter of saying "Bangla TV" does not have viewers or someone from BC should have made phone calls, I was only saying we could have used the opportunity to promote BanglaCricket. That's all.
I think, Omio, HB, SMHasan could answer the question about viewer.

No, I wasn't meaning that either. The main issue is actually the interest. That's all.
Anyway, I don't wanna give anyone a bitter taste of it. So latez!
BTW...I myself should be blamed for it too. I promised I'll call, but couldn't due to class. I'll make sure that I do so on Sunday.
