In a bid to get more engagement around the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, Disney+ Hotstar app has introduced a new feature called FollowOn. The feature is a specialized video stream delivering a real time report on what’s happening in the sport, including statistics, expert opinions, and insights into the ongoing tournament. 

The video feel will provide users with a real-time exclusive feed along with commentary on the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, in a bid to make users spend more time on the app. The FollowOn feature is available to all users of Disney+ Hotstar and does not require a paying subscription to access it.

These analysts will be providing in-depth analysis of matches, accompanied by graphics and visuals in Hindi.
