The match will also be shown on the Unite8 Sports Network, the tournament’s official television broadcaster in India. Just contract the Direct-to-Home (DTH) provider and add the channel. Tata Play, for instance, is charging Rs 10.62 rupees per month for the HD channel for the Unite8 Sports Network.
However, DD app or website or Youtube channel won’t be streaming the FIFA World Cup final.

Which option should you choose?
If you are looking for the lowest-cost premium streaming experience, ZEE5’s Rs 399 one-month FIFA World Cup pass is the cheapest official digital option.
If you would rather avoid a subscription altogether, DD Sports on DD Free Dish remains the simplest free choice.
With the World Cup trophy on the line and Lionel Messi potentially playing the final international match of his career, Indian football fans could be in for a treat.
