Apart from international cricket, IPL & CL are the key events which have a large audience
IPL is working like a rage – with a very high committed viewership Global competition at home – working subliminally to provide high sense of pride
Higher order competition, coming together of legends and new comers Some sense of pride that India is hosting a mix of legends as part of local teams
Low involvement of emotions (national pride not involved) – it is just for love of ‘game’, all the fun, while loss does hurt self esteem
It is not India playing against another competitor where ‘losing’ is seen as a national shame / lack of national pride; while regional pride is associated – its not as strong
The X Factor: Money & Glamour – Mix of Bollywood, Corporate India & Cricket. Kick of gambling entering the function because of high moneys involved
‘Money’ & ‘glamour’ attracts attention - unknown players also get overnight ‘celebrity’ status
CL – has seen a gradual climb in engagement While there is improvement over 2009, there is still lack of familiarity with the event,
specifically with respect to Non IPL teams & Players “Since we don’t know the teams we don’t feel interest to watch that. There are so many
unfamiliar teams” Amitabh Bachhan emerged as a strong icon for CL 2010 Quality of cricket in CL is appreciated, and this will clearly work in its favour in the long run
“This time (2010) the quality of cricket was better than the previous CL”
