The value of YouTube's deal was not disclosed. At the time the IPL made it clear that online streaming deals excluded markets - such as cricket playing nations including such as South Africa and New Zealand - where television broadcast deals were in place. YouTube claims that this is the first major sporting event to be streamed across the globe. Shailesh Rao, Google's managing director in India and for media and plaforms in the Asia Pacific region, said: "We are thrilled to have the IPL as our global partner and bring to the YouTube community around the world and here in India an interactive, unique experience building greater awareness around the world for the sport.
The deal would appear to benefit the IPL in markets such as the U. As well as live streaming of IPL matches, the YouTube channel will show special on-demand content including match highlights, player interviews, wickets of the match, top sixes and pitch reports.
YouTube viewers will also be able to choose between different camera angles, freeze, fast-forward and rewind the feed, and watch replays at any time during the day. The deal however comes as the Australian government is conducting a review on sports broadcasting and its anti-siphoning list, looking at which sports should be protected for free to air TV audiences. Chennai have also come runners-up on five occasions, while Kolkata have a flawless record in IPL Finals.
Chennai last won the IPL in after a seven-year gap, whereas Kolkata won the tournament in What's even more impressive is Kolkata Knight Riders' record this tournament.
They started off with just two wins from seven games before the tournament was halted in India, but then won six of their next eight games in the UAE to secure qualification to the knockout rounds. The tournament which began in April in India came to an abrupt halt - with 31 matches remaining - in early May after an increasing number of coronavirus cases both in the country and within team contingents.
The decision to move IPL to the UAE was taken mainly because of the monsoon season in India that can run until October in some parts of the country.
IPL Restart Fixtures.
