"I am overwhelmed by the suffix they have used. 97 is a glory for us. I wish them a successful journey ahead," Akram said.

The Chairman of BCB Cricket Operations Committee Jalal Yunus, said, "Cricket97 has been an integral part of cricket enthusiasts. People love to get authentic updates in real-time. I wish them more successes.'

In the successful past five years, Cricket97 offered news, views, features, exclusive interviews, spectacular visuals to the cricket minds, holding a philosophy- 'We deal with cricket.'

Bangladesh Cricket Supporters' Association (BCSA), which runs Cricket97, has been a unified platform for cricket supporters of diverse age groups and occupations in Bangladesh. Since the beginning of its emergence in 2013, BCSA has been making efforts to be with cricket in Bangladesh in every possible way. Cricket97 is part of this endeavour. The main motto of Cricket97 is to cherish cricket minds' who explore satisfaction.

Cricket97 has been offering lots of features in the unique manners. It is expected that, the portal will have live score engine and its global version in near future.
