Watch: Cadbury recreates iconic Dairy Milk advertisement from the 1990s with women cricketers
The new advertisement, dedicated to women ‘hitting it out of the park’, is a call back to a Dairy Milk advertisement released in early 1990s.
Here is the original version.
Before the Cadbury advertisement made the concept popular, a similar incident happened in real life. In 1975, a woman ran onto the cricket field at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai when a Test match between India and the West Indies was in progress. The woman dodged security officials to congratulate Indian cricketer Brijesh Patel who had just scored a half-century.
