In response to "I think Hotstar had broadcasting rights to everything, so all lost games hurt their bottom line." by David

Broadcasting rights in India and some other Asian markets (eg Sri Lanka, Bangladesh) as well as digital in the US and Canada.

I'm sure rained out games affected their bottom line to some extent and rain is a risk to insure against, but it was 4 qualifying games in a 48 game tournament.

Looking it up, the insurance loss from rain was calculated at the time at about $1.2M a match.
