Live viewership across MiLC’s digital platforms surged 258% year-over-year, while total watch hours increased 269%, indicating not just a larger audience, but deeper engagement from fans across the globe. Complementing that viewership growth, MiLC’s social channels saw explosive gains—with impressions up 266% and engagements up 447% compared to the 2024 season. As attention now shifts toward the 2026 season, the bar has been set higher both in performance and promise. While still new to the US, cricket is here to stay, expecting in time to become a permanent fixture in the American sports landscape. 📰 : tr.ee/2025-by-the-numbers

Last week, our New York-based T20 World Cup drop-in wickets migrated west to Oakland California in preparation for the 2025 Cognizant Major League Cricket opening matches this summer. After a long journey, our team was ecstatic to welcome them to their new home at the Oakland Coliseum. Over the next month, they’ll live in a pop-up nursery in the parking lot where they’ll receive lots of TLC in preparation for the new season, then later be installed on the field. This move is an incredible venture for the development of America’s cricket audience and we’re thankful to have partnered with The LandTek Group and Adelaide Oval to make it all possible. 📰: https://lnkd.in/eg7KeNCU
