Yes they said via Hotstar, however they also said this would be available from 22/23rd Feb through Disney+.

This was quite bizarre as it means potential subscribers would miss the first 2 tests.

Not sure if there is anyother way to stream from Hotstar.
It’s not been made official they intend to stream it via their platforms as yet.

Hotstar - https://www.hotstar.com/gb/ - is a wholly different service and proposition (its focused on Indian entertainment) from ‘Star’ which is going to be the brand on Disney Plus encompassing entertainment content that skews more adult.

Disney Plus is not going to be hosting any kind of sports at the launch of Star on 23/2/20 - it’s entirely focused on film and tv content.

There is a Times article about this that seems to confuse Star and Hotstar but they are two distinct products.
