I'm not sure who's still around to see it. I met Rohan Chandran when he came to Australia, sometime around 1997 I think. He still looks the same.

This was such a great trip down memory lane. I remember a lot of what they were talking about in 1992-96. Seems like a different world now. Needed to know quite a bit about networking and programming to get cricket scores and “commentary” back then.

When I had a few beers with Rohan Chandran and Travis Basevi in the 90s, Travis had the latest, state-of-the-art pager that he'd programmed to update him with scores from matches from all over the world. At one point it buzzed and he told us that so-and-so from Sri Lanka had just got his double century. I was amazed!

I still find it slightly surreal that a lot of the impetus came about was because Mick Jagger wanted to watch a Sharjah tournament that England were playing in but wasn't being broadcast to the UK. And he was willing to pay to make it happen.
