Unfortunately, we don’t have any good news tonight. India has lost the match and we have yet again lost the trophy. But, this is sports and the winning streak of India had to stop. Unlucky for us, it stopped in the most crucial match.
We will get over this trauma, and emerge with a better spirit.
Now, let’s talk about Hotstar. They certainly had a great time today. Remember the previous record…it was a massive 5.3 crore.
What happened today? Before the first 10 overs of the match, it crossed the existing record and touched 5.4 crores instantly.
But, as you may already know, the performance of Indian batters was simply not good or let’s say, didn’t stand up to the expectations. The result? Views dropped instantly.
Also, the people from Bihar, southern Uttar Pradesh, and Jharkhand had to engage themselves in Chhath Puja during the evening. Since it is the biggest festival in that region, it had a massive impact on the views.
Still, as the Aussies came to bat and Chhath Puja got over, the views spiked again and touched a massive 5.9 crores.
Had things been favourable and India performed better in that case it could very well have touched 6 crores or more. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen.
Anyways, this meme that we have attached below very well sums up our feelings.
