Thirty of the 77 slots are been aside for players from other countries.

This leads to a 24% rise from the 2022 year's revenue of Rs 2,250 crore.

The Mumbai Indians are the most valuable IPL brand, having crossed the $10 billion threshold in brand value in 2023. As of the 16th season of the league, Brand Finance estimates that the IPL system's overall brand value was $10.7 billion. The league's 2009 valuation was $2 billion, and by 2021, it had grown steadily to $4.7 billion.

 



Even up until 2013–2014, the English Premier League was the main source of fantasy sports popularity in India. However, the Indian Premier League organization later introduced fantasy sports. With the promise of paying crores to the winners of each game, these kinds of gaming apps have grown exponentially in popularity in recent years. The astonishing increase in participation demonstrates how well-liked fantasy gaming is spreading across the country. The fantasy sports market industry is quickly increasing in today's scenario.


IPL VS. Global Sports Leagues


The T20 tournament has grown to be a formidable rival to other major sports competitions. The value of an IPL broadcast each match is $14.2 million (around Rs 118.5 crore). The English Premier League (EPL), Major League Baseball (MLB) in America, which fetches a per-match broadcast value of $11 million (Rs 91 crore), and the National Basketball Association (NBA), with a per-match broadcast value of $9 million (Rs 75 crore), are all surpassed by the IPL cricket league.
