"India’s Demographic Dividend: The Economic Power Behind Record-Breaking Sports Viewership!" 📊🏏🔥

February 14, 2025

Can you believe it?? The most watched women's event was the women's FIFA World Cup finals with 1.2 crore views and 2.1 crore views overall. 

The first match of the Tata WPL itself has more views (3.3 crores) only on the Hotstar App and if we add at least another 4 crores on TV we will have over 7.3 crore viewers. That is over 3.5 times more viewership than the most watched women's sports live telecast. 

Talk of India's demographic dividend!!! A normal franchisee cricket match featuring women cricketers attracts more viewers than the finals of the world's most popular game - soccer. 

No wonder every sport in the world including cricket, soccer, tennis, and basketball wants to come to India and put their hand in the money pie. ICC has become a handmaiden of BCCI.
