KOLKATA 30 March 2026 (The Capital Post) – India’s JioStar has terminated its deal to broadcast Bangladesh’s matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL), according to a letter obtained by media sources.
The move means that JioStar will no longer show the Bangladesh team’s games in the IPL, affecting fans who had been expecting coverage through the platform. The decision was communicated through official correspondence, although specific reasons behind the termination were not detailed in the letter.
Cricket followers in Bangladesh and India had anticipated access to live broadcasts of the Bangladesh squad’s performances, but the sudden cancellation of the agreement has raised questions about future broadcast arrangements.
Industry analysts say the change could impact viewership and fan engagement, especially among supporters of the Bangladesh team who rely on JioStar for live streaming. The IPL remains one of the most watched cricket leagues globally, and broadcast rights are highly sought after by media companies.
JioStar’s decision comes at a time when digital platforms are increasingly competing for sports content, with broadcasters and streaming services vying to secure exclusive rights to major sporting events. The termination of the deal underscores the dynamic and competitive nature of sports media rights negotiations.-The Capital Post
