The IPL season has finally begun in UAE yesterday. But like everytime, the matches are not being broadcasted on television, but are streaming live on Disney Hotstar. However, witnessing these matches almost seem normal during coronavirus, strict precautions are being taken.
One such precaution is having these IPL matches without a crowd. However, Disney Hotstar has made sure that people don’t miss that live feel and introduced sound effects of a fake crowd. Twitter has a lot to say about this new feature.
People watched FRIENDS with a fake laugh and complaining about fake crowd voice in IPL

Was pretty odd to hear the fake crowd noises initially ( when La Liga and UCL resumed after the pandemic ) but got used to it!

But the noise surely gets in your nerves when your team is on the receiving end 🥱😤
The fake crowd cheering in the IPL is like the IT cell of some political parties. Both only make noise, meaningless noise!

Why the f*** @IPL using fake crowd noise. It’s a stupid move by @IPL. We don’t want fake noise. We definitely want to hear players talking.

Stop the crowd noise ASAP.
It’s such a cringe fest
Isn’t it foolish When you know that there is no spectators in the ground and still @DisneyPlusHS is giving fake sound effects of large crowd cheering for every ball…like a sitcom tv show..@IPL @DisneyHotstarIn @InsideEdgeAMZN plz stop this 🙏🏼
— Chitranjan sharma (@chitssharma) September 19, 2020
Please remove the crowd sound of people from match its irritating @IPL
— Aman Sharma (@AmanSharma45_) September 19, 2020
Dear @ICC – How about live streaming sound of audience from their homes through an app in to the stadium ? It will almost bring the crowd atmosphere. #IPL .

The crowd sound effect for ipl is probably the most realistic one I’ve heard out of every post pandemic tournaments so far, for a sec i forgot its edited.

Dear @SGanguly99 sir and @BCCI please stop background noise in IPL -world know about there is no any public so why crowd sound going on in background
— Nishant Nayan (@Nishant_Jay_HND) September 20, 2020
IPL without crowd kinda sucks.. Hope they have some 200- 300 spectators at least in the ground. @bcci do something.
— Aravind (@netcitizen) September 19, 2020
Hey @IPL. How about turning those annoying crowd noises of and instead use the stump mic.

Would love to hear what Dhoni does behind the stumps@ChennaiIPL
