Australia vs Ireland hitting 11 million mark on Hotstar is surprising to me, you got any media link to back it up?

Skeptical about this number because India vs Pak premier match only touched 18 million, which is a lot actually but doesn't look juicy when compared to Aus vs Ire.

I was watching it live on Hotstar and they usually display the viewer numbers. It is not just the Australia vs Ireland match. I witnessed viewership crossing the 10 million mark in a number of other matches as well (many of them not involving India). It proves that Indian fans are interested in the other teams as well and there is no requirement that for matches to be viewed by a large number of people in India they should involve the national team. BTW, today is a working day and the viewership right now is ~12 million.

But it was hard luck for India - people were so excited to see India and Pakistan in Final. I am happy that is not happening, because Pakistani team hardly win against India - Thank God its PAkistan VS England. Although England is very good team. But Pakistan should try to win because they have been very lucky to through to the world cup.
