IPL Final Is Less Than A Week Away. Have You Tried These 7 Lesser-Known JioCinema Live Streaming Features Yet?

IPL 2024 streaming on JioCinema is incredibly fun. From player-focussed Hero Cams to ROFL-worthy commentaries in regional languages. Here are 7 must-try live streaming features.

IPL 2024 Final is set for this Sunday (May 26). Shreyas Iyer's Kolkata Knight Riders have already reserved their spot following an emphatic victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the first playoffs. It remains to be seen who becomes the challengers: Royal Challengers Bangalore, Rajasthan Royals, or Hyderabad itself. JioCinema has exclusive streaming rights for this year's IPL and has been offering matches for free at 4K resolution to all viewers. 

Now, you may (or may not) have noticed that JioCinema offers a handful of fun features that you can access on your screen during the match. These range from multiple in-depth camera angles to pinch-to-zoom features. These features are not only fun to use but can satiate the most nutty cricket nut among us. 

The only catch is, JioCinema doesn't highlight these options during a live stream, and viewers are expected to find them on their own. These options are not hard to find either. All you need to do is tap on your mobile screen, or fiddle around with your TV remote/PC mouse when a live stream is on. 

Here Are JioCinema IPL-Special Streaming Features You Must Check Out

Choose Your Camera Angle

Fans can now choose their preferred camera angles during live matches. Options include the spider camera view, batsman view, bird’s eye view, wicketkeeper view, and the newly introduced Hero Cam, which focuses on all the action on just one player. I mean, who doesn't want to fix their gaze on Virat Kohli's many on-field antics during matches?

This feature allows viewers to watch the game from different perspectives, enhancing the immersive experience.

Hype Mode For Stats Aficionados

The Hype Mode feature enables viewers to multitask without missing any live action. This mode allows users to access real-time statistics, scoreboards, and trivia while watching the game, providing a comprehensive viewing experience without having to leave the live stream.

Replay On Demand

For those who miss key moments during the live broadcast, JioCinema offers on-demand replays.

This feature lets viewers rewatch important plays and highlights at their convenience, ensuring they never miss a pivotal moment of the match, or just be a Third Umpire on their own. 

Pinch-To-Zoom Feature

On the JioCinema mobile app, users can use the pinch-to-zoom feature to focus on specific areas of the field.

This capability allows fans to get a closer look at the action, adding another layer of interactivity to the viewing experience.

Commentary In Your Own Language

Possibly my most favourite IPL live streaming feature, I switch to Bengali commentary during every match and I must say this is one of the best IPL coverages I have seen in a long time. Not only does the feature change audio commentary, but also takes you to special commentary boxes and match discussion sessions where you can check out iconic cricket stars (as well as film stars) chat about the games in your own native language.  

The overall UX also changes, as the game visuals (stats, scorecards, and other elements) get automatically converted into your native language as well.

Also, commentaries in native languages are just insanely fun, thanks to the presenters incredible sense of humour and overall tongue-in-cheek attitude. If you haven't tried out the Bhojpuri commentary yet, I highly recommend you do. Cricket will never be the same again.

Viewers can enjoy the matches in English, Hindi, Haryanavi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bhojpuri, Punjabi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. 

Special Fan Feed

JioCinema also includes an interactive fan feed where viewers can post comments and engage with other fans in real time.

This social aspect enhances the communal experience of watching IPL, making it more enjoyable and lively. Think of this as a special social media just for JioCinema, without the presence of right-wing trolls. 

Dedicated Scoreboard

A dedicated scoreboard on the JioCinema mobile app provides detailed and up-to-date information about ongoing matches. This feature ensures that fans are always informed about the latest scores and match developments.

As mentioned earlier, all these options are easily available on the screen. All you need to do is fiddle around to find the desired option/button.
