'''Star Sports''' (formerly '''ESPN Star Sports''') is a group of [[India|Indian multinational]] [[pay television]] [[List of sports television channels|sports channels]] owned by [[Star India]], a subsidiary of [[The Walt Disney Company India]]. Previously a part of [[Fox Sports Asia|ESPN Star Sports]] operations based in [[Singapore]], Star India took over the Indian business and relaunched channels under the unified Star Sports brand in 2013. Gautam Thakar is the CEO of Star Sports.

== History ==
[[Hong Kong]]-based [[Fox Networks Group Asia Pacific|Star TV]] launched Prime Sports (later renamed Star Sports) in partnership with American company [[Tele-Communications Inc.|TCI]], which owned [[Prime Network|Prime-branded regional sports channels]]. The channel was broadcast across Asia, including India, as with the footprint of [[AsiaSat 7]]. Star TV have since regionalised the channel with a number of versions. Later, ESPNjoined in the region as a competitor to Star Sports.

ESPN and Star Sports were competing each other across Asia.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Fabrikant |first1=Geraldine |title=Broadcasters Bet on Sports As First Step In New Markets |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1996/03/04/business/broadcasters-bet-on-sports-as-first-step-in-new-markets.html |access-date=10 January 2019 |work=[[The New York Times]] |date=4 March 1996}}</ref> But in October 1996, both channels have agreed to combine their operations in the region.<ref>{{cite news |title=Rival sport channels ESPN, Star TV team up together |url=https://adage.com/article/news/rival-sport-channels-espn-star-tv-team/11852/ |access-date=11 January 2019 |work=[[Advertising Age]] |date=October 9, 1996}}</ref> As a result, a joint venture named [[Fox Sports Asia|ESPN Star Sports]] was formed, to be headquartered in Singapore.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Sullivan |first1=Maureen |title=Asian TV team christens venture ESPN Star Sports |url=https://variety.com/1997/scene/vpage/asian-tv-team-christens-venture-espn-star-sports-1117433553/ |access-date=11 January 2019 |work=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]] |date=January 15, 1997}}</ref> The joint venture's business in India was managed by its subsidiary, ESPN Software India Private Limited.

On 11 March 2013, Star Sports 2, a Hindi language sport channel, was launched as a sister channel to Star Sports, Star Cricket and ESPN.<ref>{{cite news |title=ESPN Star Sports launches new channel |url=https://www.livemint.com/Consumer/7IEVw8wGZQb6BtCS0U8bvK/ESPN-Star-Sports-launches-new-channel.html |access-date=10 January 2019 |agency=[[Press Trust of India]] |date=7 March 2013|via=[[Mint (newspaper)|Mint]]}}</ref>
