Now, these companies are competing to take broadcast rights of IPL. Amazon and Reliance may come face to face over the broadcasting rights of IPL. A decision on who will get the broadcasting rights is expected in late March or early April.

According to media sources, for 5 years from 2023 to 2027, the Indian board can get up to 40 thousand crore rupees instead of broadcast rights of this league.

According to media reports, Amazon and Reliance will compete with Sony Group and Walt Disney over the exclusive TV and digital broadcast rights of 5 years of IPL.
This will increase competition
Now the competition will increase by joining the competition of big companies like Reliance and Amazon to take IPL rights. Both the companies are also competing for the fast-growing e-commerce market with their digital platforms. On one hand, is Amazon's Prime Video, and on the other hand, is Reliance's JioTV. Reliance is also in talks with investors for its broadcasting joint venture Viacom18.
Amazon has recently started live-streaming
Amazon recently started live-streaming cricket matches on the Prime Video platform. Although the company does not have a TV platform yet. In this case, it will need to bring in a TV partner or it can only bid for digital.
