You can just buy the bd v eng tour for only 50 bucks or you can get the whole cricketticket for 225.

By the way....i ahve checked www.willow.tv and they dont have any declearation on BD vs ENG tour and i dont think they r going to broadcast this tour anyway.

Anybody have any news on this topic?

Well i called Direct TV. I basically need to buy a dish worth $150 + tax plus buy the package, which would eventually cost me $375 +.
I don't think i can afford that kinda money, so i'll have to sticket to bangladeshlive.net or some other source for my cricket pleasures.

what's the story on Dish?

**Tehsin** · #8 April 24, 2005, 01:50 PM

Dish network is a little behind on it's programming too. Dish has acquired the rights to all home matches for Pakistan until 2008 and were showing the recent india-pakistan series. http://echostarcricket.mediazone.com/

It's depressing to see that neither dish nor directtv has anything concrete planned for the viewers. We always have to wait until the last minute to find out.

I was trying to send everyone to direct TV so I can enjoy bangladeshlive.net all by myself.

thanks for the update tehsin, i don;t think i can switch to direct tv it's too much of a hassle - hopefully we'll have something to see online...

chyicarus, the 375 will cover 6 months of cricket, IF you are interested. Also, if you have a big screen tv, you'll be set. If you have friends and neighbors, it may turn out to be a great deal.

Rafiq bhai, right about the hassle. With 375, I can buy return air tickets, maybe tickets to a game or two and spend some time with other BC fans in UK. TEMPTING.
