Overview
- Both organizations said the 2024–27 agreement remains fully in force and JioStar continues as the ICC’s official India rights partner for TV and digital.
- JioStar pledged to honor its obligations "in letter and spirit" and to deliver uninterrupted coverage of upcoming ICC events, including the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026.
- They said preparations are progressing as planned with no impact on viewers, advertisers, or industry partners.
- Earlier reports had claimed JioStar notified the ICC of an intent to withdraw and that the ICC sounded out other platforms, but those assertions were not confirmed by either party.
- The deal has been widely reported at about USD 3 billion, and prior coverage cited sharply higher provisions for sports-contract losses as a backdrop to the speculation.
