IPL is a festival in this country and fans wait for the whole year with eagerness to experience the game properly. But due to the lack of farsightedness and dedication of streaming platforms, they fail to do so time and again.
Apart from problems with bad commentaries and multiple glitches, there is something else that hampers the IPL experience for fans and it is the number of ads.
Jio Hotstar's Content Not At Par With Disney+Hotstar?
Fans are complaining that Jio Hotstar is showing no restraint in pushing ads. And even in crucial moments, ads are being shown.
In the T-20 format the games have too much tension and the platform needs to hold the tension for the fans. The ads not only interrupt the match but also dilute the suspense.

Ads can be shown after a casual over ending or a wicket like it used to be previously. But now, even when the match is on and there is something going on in the pitch, an ad is being shown and this is unacceptable.
Jio Hotstar should learn from the complaints and try to show some restraint. Otherwise, in the process of making some money from ads it will be losing a lot of subscribers.
