Mumbai: Amidst the on-going ICC Men’s T20 World Cup fever, Disney+ Hotstar elevates the cricketainment experience with the launch of Follow On. This is a special video feed that gives a real-time account of the cricket match - complete with stats, expert opinions, and insights into the game. Disney+ Hotstar makes Follow On available for all users—subscribers as well as freemium users. Freemium users on Disney+ Hotstar will be switched to Follow On after the free live cricket timer (a free sampling of live cricket offered to freemium users) expires, to be able to follow the game seamlessly.
Follow On’s viewers can get analysis with graphics and visuals in Hindi by cricket commentators such as Sunil Vaidya, Sanjay Banerjee, Raman Bhanot, Vineet Garg, Naveen Srivastava, Reema Malhotra, Ajay Mehra, Padmajeet Sehrawat, and Manoj Sharma.
A Disney+ Hotstar spokesperson said, "Disney+ Hotstar has always delivered the best-in-class live sports experience in India. With Follow On, we're raising the bar by democratising access to premium cricket entertainment by providing a real-time account of the cricket action to all users—including our freemium viewers.
"Every Disney+ Hotstar user is valuable to us, and we constantly strive to deliver innovation that helps users engage deeper with our platform. We look forward to rolling out Follow On to users, which will further bolster Disney+ Hotstar's position as the one-stop-shop for cricketainment."
