People in many supports of South Asia suffer from electricity. For people in Bangladesh, load shedding is a part of every day life. During the world cup matches, many areas have power cuts and that is why people cannot enjoy World Cup matches. Considering the fact that millions of people in Bangladesh are die hard supporters of either Argentina or Brazil, not being able to watch their favorite teams playing is a terrible torture for them. In those moments, mobile phones become the main lifeline for these fans. They call or send SMS to their relatives and friends who live in other parts of the country or city to get the latest score of the match. Often their relatives and friends send SMS or call them directly when a goal is scored or someone gets red card.
A mobile phone operator in Bangladesh has started a special service for World Cup. Under this service, when a goal is scored in a match, a SMS comes to your phone giving you the information. However, consumers have to pay for this special service but no one is complaining about it. Instead many people are happy that they are getting the fresh news.
What about your country? How do you get world cup news when you are out of the reach of any television?
