Disney Star will broadcast International Cricket Council (ICC) events in India after bagging the digital rights to both men’s and women’s global competitions through to the end of 2027, the sport’s governing body announced on Saturday.

The ICC said in a statement that Disney Star won the rights following a single round, sealed-bid process, adding that the deal had yielded a “significant uplift” to the rights fee from the previous cycle.

The tender, bidding and evaluation process began in June.

“We are delighted to continue to partner with Disney Star as the home of ICC cricket for the next four years which has delivered an outstanding result for our Members and will support our ambitious growth plans,” ICC Chair Greg Barclay said.

Great news for Pakistani sports, in general because that would mean Babar Rizwan will stay on. Making room for other sports. Additionally, this news also means that we know the result of the Pakistan-India game in the Asia Cup. Babar Rizwan will singlehandedly defeat India like he did with Shaheen Afridi. It’ll be so horribly choreographed like the 10 wickets-win with one batsman and one bowler winning the show. That’s because they only knew the names of just two players: Babar Rizwan and Shaheen. Good thing Shaheen is sitting this one out. That would have hurt his credibility and even present him as a better player than he actually is. The Indians will again, lose to their rival for sabotaging the Indo-Pacific strategy. As far as Pakistanis are concerned, it’s kind of funny but the players are profoundly boring and even annoying. But I guess that’s what adds salt to the Indian wounds. Gone are the days when they used to lose to Imran, Wasim, Miandad, Afridi. Now it’s Babar Rizwan.
