How Indian T20 League has increased the popularity and demand of fantasy cricket in India
Cricket was massively popular in India but was gradually decreasing because of certain factors.
Now test cricket is five day long while One Day Internationals are at least 8-9 hours long. The
game failed to keep all the viewers intact because of its length. People lost interest and various
cricketing boards were suffering losses because of that. Later, the T20 cricket game entered the
market and changed the business completely. Even when T20 cricket was suffering for
viewership in the fifth-sixth season of Indian T20 League, fantasy cricket arrived and changed
the business altogether. Fans then were not only watching the game but also participating in the
game by playing online fantasy cricket in India.
The reason behind the growth of these various fantasy cricket leagues is because of how popular
Indian T20 Cricket has become. The Indian board deserves a lot of credit for branding it so well
that the tournament is now valued in several billion dollars. Fantasy cricket platforms in India

to play various leagues in different fantasy platforms. The gaming organization has also done
really well in order to keep up with the rising expectations. Many new formats like 2nd innings

favorite players and winning loads of money from the platforms. So, at the end of the day, the
users were really happy because of the opportunities and the rewards they were getting from
various cricket fantasy apps. As people were turning up to be a part of this process and earn
money in return, the Indian T20 League was also gaining lots of viewers as people now followed
the game closely because their money's on the line.
Even after that, you can’t really say that two of them complete each other. However, one thing is
for sure that the two of them really complement each other. It is a combination that is bringing
