JioHotstar will be the destination for top-flight cricket tournaments including ICC events, IPL, and WPL and also feature grassroots cricket with the Indian Street Premier League and developmental tournaments of BCCI, ICC, and state cricket associations. Apart from cricket, the site will host international sporting spectacles like the Premier League and Wimbledon, along with mainstream domestic leagues like Pro Kabaddi and the Indian Super League (ISL).
