    • The first IPL match attracted 130 million viewers, compared with a record 115.1 million for the 2023 Super Bowl.
    • The 2023 IPL champions the Chennai Super Kings are valued at about US$1.15 billion (A$1.67 billion), according to Forbes in 2022.

So how did India do it?

    • India acted fast to surf the T20 wave.
    • By 2025, India’s middle class will number 583 million, or 41% of the country’s projected population.
    • This gives teams deep pockets when buying players from all over the globe, with the TV broadcast rights topping up IPL coffers too.
    • This has also boosted women’s cricket, including their pay packets, with the launch of the Women’s Premier League in India earlier this year.

Cricket diplomacy

    • It just shows the power of India in world cricket, and more generally the power of sport in today’s global economy.
    • Cricket diplomacy was on display then too, spawning now famous images of Prime Ministers Modi and Albanese on a chariot before the fourth test match in Ahmedabad.
    • But differences remain

      Cricket diplomacy has been central to the Modi-Albanese partnership, which highlights the role of sport in political and economic relationship building.

    • And the rise of the IPL has boosted India’s ascendancy as a superpower in world cricket.
