Watching the games

I finally bit the bullet and shelled out the money to watch the games on Dish Network. It comes to about $100 per match - do u think I'll get my money's worth ?

In the semifinals and the final match - certainly.

Bangladesh's matches? Don't be so sure.

$ 100 per match ? You mean $10 right ? The whole tour is $199 and win or lose, I think Bangladesh matches are WORTH IT. Everything else is a bonus. Let's hope the boys give you your money's worth if not, we can sue BCB .......... (I did mention We, since I gave the idea, I deserve some of that. Also, the pain and suffering i went through the last 10 years or so with only the ICC trophy and few brief moments, I believe I deserve something to show for it)

Nope, it's $100 per match. You're right, it was $199 for the package, but I have no interest (well almost) in the other games.

So you want to pay 100 per match, even for semifinal and final thats 300 dollars. Why not simplay pay the 199 package??

You lost me here.

It's $199 for the whole package - they're not offering individual matches. Since I had to get the whole package and only two games are of interest to me, it comes to $100 per match - that's the point i was trying to make.

Handle, you are a great fan of Bangladesh cricket - willing to pay the same amount of money for only Bangladesh's games whereas you could've watched all the matches including Bangladesh's matches at the same cost.

As far as I can remember, you said once that you used to take care of Bangladesh Cricinfo site, right? Why don't you try to take over the BD Cricinfo site again? They're not willing to update much since Bangladesh's matches against Pakistan was held early this year.

Uhhh, got it.

Salute to you brother. I guess I am not so die hard fan like you.
