The BCCI's domains
A year ago, I wrote about the ICC's domains.
I found the BCCI's ratings and awards site today. A 'WHOIS' lookup reveals quite a few things.
Registrant:The domain is 'owned' by Modi Entertainment Network. No prizes for guessing the identity of the chairman of Modi Enterprises, the parent company of Modi Entertainment Network.

The administrators at the BCCI have probably not realized the importance of ownership of such a domain name. While I don't necessarily doubt Lalit Modi's intentions, the BCCI could end up on thin ice a few years later.

That Modi network site is hilarious. I especially like the search box describing searches as Sensitive or Insensitive. (Yes, I know it refers to case - but that doesn't stop it being funny.)
Even better, trying to use it tells me Not Found. That might have been because I searched for [colonial] [AND] [Insensitive], though. I don't think Malcolm Speed appears on the Modi network site.
