Top 5 websites to follow IPL
Cricket today is one of the most followed sport with around 2.5 billion followers around the world. In India, it is nothing short of a religion. And when the world’s richest domestic T20 competition airs on television, it begets an indescribable excitement and a humongous fan following.
However, many of the Indian Premier League matches are scheduled during the week when it is not quite possible to follow every game. But the ardent cricket fans need not despair; here’s a list of the top websites you can follow to get all the latest updates on IPL 2018.
Cricbuzz
As the name suggests, this is a one-stop destination for all the ‘buzz’ around cricket. The home page displays live scores of all the major international matches and leagues along with latest news and videos on the side panels.
What’s more interesting is that the website offers ball-by-ball commentary, which means the viewers can enjoy all the action on the pitch even if they can’t watch the match.
Sportskeeda
Sportskeeda offers latest news articles on various sports around the world. What makes the website stand out is that it is owned by fans. This means that, apart from viewing IPL live scores, schedule and points table, the user can write articles, comment on articles and share the articles easily via social media.
The ‘Indian sports fan’ is often regarded as a couch critic, who rambles on what’s wrong with Indian sports but fails to do anything about it. Well, it’s time to change that.
With the advent of websites like Sportskeeda, the Indian sports fan has the opportunity to create content and not just digest it. So, the next time you’re looking around the internet for the IPL points table or whatnot and feel the urge to express your emotions, make sure you visit Sportskeeda.com.
Espncricinfo
This is another website which offers ball-by-ball coverage along with game tracking features such as wagon wheels and partnership breakdowns. The website features in-depth analysis of some of the best cricketing experts around the world which makes it an engrossing read. The IPL 2018 section of the website is already live with a number of tournament lead up videos.
Hotstar.com
With Star India Pvt Ltd acquiring both the media and broadcasting rights of this year’s IPL, this would be one of the websites to watch out for.
For the users who prefer to watch videos, the websites is a one-stop destination as it features umpteen videos from match clips, video highlights and a whole platter of action-packed videos. Star India will also be streaming IPL matches via Hotstar in virtual reality (VR) form.
Ndtvsport.com
NDTV sports is a paradise and not just for cricket fans as it features a number of sports. Along with the IPL live scores, highlight videos, and fixtures, the website also has a ‘players’ column that focuses on individual performances of the players.
The website also has ‘poll of the day’ wherein it gathers public opinion on questions relating to specific sports.
