Seems highly random. Why would the Indian Premier Cricket League and Indy 500 be featured? These are national news which only a few people care about outside the respective countries.

Could be because the Indian Premier Cricket League (IPL), which started in 2008, is huge now. Here's the per match broadcast value of sports leagues around the world (Jun 2023):

1.NFL: $17 million

2. IPL: $13.4 million

3. EPL: $11 million

4. MLB: $11 million

5. NBA: $9 million
