Disney+ Hotstar’s Post

While we lost the disappointing finals, a match better erased from the memory and from the archives. Disney Star came out as a winner in this yet another edition of ODI Mens WC in India. In all our discussions with the brands, I had maintained that this is once in a decade media opportunity, 50 over WC “in-India”!. It can't get bigger than this. Every edition of ODI WC has the potential to become the most watched cricket event ever. Mainly because ODI is a 8 hour format and due to the league format, total matches are 48(+warm ups) which results in 384 Hours of LIVE broadcast. Compared to IPL, which is 222 Hours of live broadcast, that means, even if T20 WC number of matches increases, the reach will still not be comparable to an ODI WC, not taking away anything from the T20 WC, it will be equivalent to an IPL season, if not more. Verdict is out! - Record viewership both on TV and Digital streaming.  Great to see Disney coming up with single communication announcing and celebrating the numbers for both the mediums, instead of seemingly putting one against the other due to ongoing competition with JioCinema and the fact that Disney holds only the TV rights for the IPL, with digital rights ~ Jio. While we celebrate every time new broadcast rights garner record contracts from the broadcasters, rationality in media rights has to prevail to make a viable business. Sooner than later, either consolidation or otherwise, monopoly or duopoly will lead to the coexistence and rationality and till then consumers are the only winners in this game. After all, whichever is the platform, no one owns these premium rights till eternity, but must pay for the rights for a fixed period of time and ensure that the return from it is cash positive by the end of it. Only fair long term valuation will lead to fair and more sustainable ad pricing and thereby fair YOY growth for the corporations. Closer to when that time comes, I also believe that subscriptions will come back and a balanced model of Subscription + Ad Revenue will prevail in the long run. US NBA Broadcast regular season Ad rates for TV including CTV(10sec) - range 25 to 30L INR(NFL is even higher) India IPL Ad rates including CTV (10sec) - 22-24L INR US GDP per capita - 76000 USD(2022) India GDP per capita - 2301 USD(2022) US is 33 times of India GDP per capita, while this is not the only relevant indicator but it is one of the few indicators which might indicates the inflated valuations of India cricket broadcast rights.

Before the Asia Cup 2023 India was not the favorite to win Asia Cup 2023 After the Asia Cup 2023 India is the favorite to win the World Cup 2023 How does that change??? A cumulative effort from  Bowlers, Batsmen, and Fielders. Brought Asia Cup 2023 to India. Winning is never a one-man game. It takes team efforts to win. Its a chain effort.

Our CEO Priya Chanduraj witnessed the recent cricket match - India vs Pakistan in Nassau Stadium in New York. Rohit Sharma's speech celebrating Jasprit Bumrah's talent struck a chord, not just with cricket fans, but with those of us in the business world too. Just as Rohit Sharma uplifted Bumrah with his genuine praise, leaders have shown us the power of recognition in the workplace. Whether it's acknowledging a team member's innovative idea or praising a colleague's dedication, be a leader who understands that genuine recognition is the fuel that drives teams toward success. In a world where leaders are often associated with authority and directives, a great business leader stands out by exemplifying humility, empathy, and sincere appreciation for the talents of those around them. Their leadership style inspires collaboration, boosts morale, and fosters a culture of excellence. As we applaud Rohit Sharma's leadership on the cricket field, let's also take a moment to reflect on the impactful leadership lessons demonstrated by leaders in the corporate arena. Here's to leaders who uplift, inspire, and empower their teams to achieve greatness, both on and off the field! 🏏 https://lnkd.in/eEjKuzPV #Leadership #Business #Recognition #Teamwork #Inspiration #Empowerment #FinTeamOne

#cheer4India The India-Pakistan cricket match in a World Cup is one of the most anticipated and high-stakes encounters in the sport. The rivalry between the two teams is deeply ingrained in cricket history and carries a significant emotional charge for fans on both sides. Emotions are at fever pitch during an India-Pakistan World Cup match. Players are not just representing their teams; they're carrying the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of millions. The pressure to perform is immense, and the psychological battle is as intense as the physical one. The roar of the crowd, the sea of flags, and the deafening chants create an atmosphere that is electrifying and overwhelming in equal measure. An India-Pakistan cricket match in the World Cup is more than a contest; it's an experience, a spectacle, and a testament to the unifying power of sport. #indiavspakistan #worldcup #indvspak #viratkohli  #india #cricket  #pakistan #wc #cricketmatch #worldcupcricket #indiacricket #pakistancricket #memes #worldcupmatch #indiacricketteam #indianarmy #pakistanvsindia

IPL vs. T20 World Cup - Cricket I was wondering on the scores the teams are posting in T20 World Cup. They seem so low when compared to recently concluded IPL. Crazy high scores were recorded this year in IPL. I wanted to check, if it is just the conditions of the venue OR if there is generally a “trend” of T20 World Cup Vs. IPL. One graph that was surprising for me are the strike rates over the years between IPL and T20 World Cup. Consistently, players have been more ‘daring’ in IPL format. Check out the graphs. Also, a very interesting article by sportstar on what could be the reasons for it. Source and reference: https://lnkd.in/gxKCNFnU

Here are a few reasons why Men in Blue should make an effort to win the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 in the perspective of Thought Habitat. https://lnkd.in/g2FHDeSx #meninblue #teamindia #cwc2023

Motivation in the face of failure/or an unsuccessful attempt is not about sugarcoating the situation or dismissing the challenges. Instead, it involves fostering a culture where mistakes are viewed as opportunities for growth. A leader's words carry weight, and a well-timed dose of encouragement can rekindle the team's spirits. Leadership support during failure/or on a bad day extends beyond professional aspects; it encompasses the emotional well-being of the team. Acknowledging the emotional toll of setbacks and providing a supportive space for team members to express their feelings fosters a sense of trust and belonging. Yes, we couldn't win the Final but it has been a remarkable journey. As a fan I am disappointed, heartbroken and crestfallen but as an Indian I am incredibly proud of what we have achieved in this world cup and I can say this after having tasted my fair share of bad days and #failure !! #LeadershipSuccess #MotivationInFailure #TeamResilience #SupportiveLeadership #LearningFromSetbacks #ProfessionalGrowth #LeadershipSkills #FailureToSuccess #TeamCollaboration #EmotionalSupport #CareerDevelopment #LeadershipImpact #WorkplaceCulture #InspirationalLeadership #leadershipjourney
