Meta partnership with International Cricket Council (ICC)

? Meta announced its partnership with the International Cricket Council (ICC) to show users the best moments from the ICC T20 World Cup Australia on Reels.

?Fans will be able to access match highlights and in-play clips as well as engage and create Reels with exclusive augmented reality (AR) effects and a fan anthem to support their favourite teams.

?Short form video content has been a big hit. The proliferation of content across platforms has also sparked increased consumption of
additional sports content—both related to and not related to live matches

?As per a Nielsen report, the demand for content related to a live event (match announcements, highlights, recap videos, etc.) is almost as high as it is for digitally delivered events themselves.

?Non-live sports content has the power to attract new audiences to sports as well, particularly for Gen Z and platform like TikTok has done a great job with it, associating with a number of different sports properties across sports.
