Md Jabed Ali Media entrepreneur · Journalist · Digital strategist
I started with a love for cricket. Today, I build sports media platforms, work with dedicated teams and tell stories from the world's sporting stages.
01 · The story
I am a Bangladeshi media entrepreneur and journalist, and the founder of BDCricTime.
My journey began in 2010, when sharing cricket updates was simply something I loved doing. In 2011 I created BDCricTeam.com to bring cricket news and updates closer to Bangladeshi fans. What began as one person's interest gradually developed into an organisation of editors, reporters, creators and technical professionals.
The platform began earning revenue in 2015 and took on the name BDCricTime in late 2016. Building a sustainable media operation taught me that a good story needs more than passion: it needs consistency, a committed team and the trust of its audience.
My work has taken me from cricket venues in Bangladesh to international tournaments across Asia, Australia and Europe. Through BDSportsTime, I have also continued building a platform for football and other sports.
“From Passion to Profession” is not just a tagline. It is the story behind this work.
Recognition for media, innovation and enterprise

Cricket · Stories · Community
BDCricTime has grown from a cricket fan's initiative into a dedicated sports newsroom, bringing news, interviews, live coverage and original stories to audiences in Bangladesh and beyond.

Football · Beyond cricket
First imagined in 2018, with the domain and pages in place, BDSportsTime entered its active, team-led phase in 2023 to give football and other sports their own space.
04 · Global coverage
From the 2014 T20 World Cup in Bangladesh to cricket in England and Australia, and football in Saudi Arabia and Azerbaijan, reporting on location has always been a central part of my work.

Azerbaijan 2026
In Baku I followed Bangladesh's journey at the FIFA U-15 World Cup & Festival, where the team finished runners-up in Tier E. A reminder of why covering developing talent matters.

England 2026
Covering the ICC Women's T20 World Cup brought me to Lord's and The Oval, places where the setting and the stories behind the game are as memorable as the score.

Australia 2025
During the Top End T20 in Darwin, I reported on Bangladesh A and recorded conversations with players and people involved in Northern Territory cricket.
05 · Community & leadership
Sports media has also connected me with volunteer and professional communities. I served as a founding secretary of the Bangladesh Cricket Supporters Association from 2014 to 2023 and became a member of JCI Dhaka Founders in 2024.
In 2025, JCI activities took me to the Asia-Pacific Conference in Mongolia and the World Congress in Tunisia. These experiences reinforced the value of learning, collaboration and contributing beyond one's profession.
