It is not just the Indian Premier League, which fans would be able to watch live on JioHotstar. Another T20 league is streamed on this platform, which is the SA20. This tournament partnered with JioHotstar as its broadcasting partner, which has turned out to be one of the key reasons behind its growth in the recent season.
The linear platform of JioStar reported that the tournament had shown an 11% increase in the audience reach. But this is not just the only place where the audience reaches or viewership has increased. According to the reports, JioHotstar also reported that a 33% increase in the video views were achieved in this tournament.
This shows a massive growth for the tournament, only via JioHotstar. But the overall growth which has been recorded in the media rights stands at a whopping total of 257%. The growth in the media reach game with the help of various aspects such as online, print, and broadcasts.
The growth of SA20 feels surreal, as the numbers have shown a tremendous spike. The majority of these numbers came from the Indian fans who turned into JioHotstar to watch their favourite Proteas players give their best in a different league. With several former Indian players such as Dinesh Karthik, being involved in the tournament, fans got another reason to watch the games. With this growth in its viewership and reach, fans are even calling it as the second-best T20 league in the world.
