Default counting cells using multiple criteria

=sumproduct(--(rng1="text1"),--(rng2="text2"))

Note that SUMPRODUCT doesn't work with complete columns, you have to specify
a range.

Hi,
how do a create a custom function to count cells (text) based on more
than criteria. Example

column a - lists critiera 1 (text)
column b - list criteria 2 (text)

I would like to be able to count number of cells from colulmn b that
match citieria 1 and 2.

I have tried multiple countif and counta and sum product but not
getting the correct result
