summary
Explains why the IPL becomes a global product citing 50,000 crore rupees media rights and ~13 million viewers per match versus the NFL’s 17 million, and traces concrete tech milestones: a non-linear video query system built around 1999–2000 with Phoenix Global Solutions and Optibase media cards, analyst workflows that tag every ball into a searchable database, Hawk-Eye requiring six cameras 300 fps for reliable ball tracking, and a 2.5‑hour match‑referee standoff in St. Lucia that is defused through negotiation.
