Moreover, the recent video has been created by Agency Matta which has already delivered ‘Are You In’ campaign for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.
Matt Campbell, executive creative director of Agency Matta said, “The challenge in the brief was to sell cricket as more than just the game on the field. It’s the whole colourful experience, the national costumes, fancy dress, musical instruments in the crowd and the infectious passion, particularly of South Asian supporters, that create a unique atmosphere and experience that British sport’s fans will love.”
Further, Adrian Wells, marketing director of the Cricket World Cup said, “This is something we are uniquely able to create in multi-cultural Britain.”
Later, he added, ”Seeing Freddie sing and dance is not what you would expect from cricket, and that’s the point – we hope to show cricket in a new light and engage new fans.”
