Much like the Super Bowl—considered the most watched television property in the US with estimated advertising revenues of $186.3 million (Rs922 crore today) in 2008—season 2 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is being seen as a great platform to promote brands and launch new products.

I would also say that IPL is emerging as a great platform to advertise. Advertising is all about picking the right media with high viewership to get maximum visibility and brand recall. And IPL as a platform satisfies it all.

Sasi you have considered only one side of advertisement aspect i.e regarding audience. Brands like Adidas, Sprite, Cadbury’sDairy Milk chocolate, Castrol engine oil, Hyundai Motor, General Motors, Max New York Life Insurance are known globally. They can definitely use the platform of IPL to advertise and get attention from public globally. It not only about going global it about the peek which they can achieve in this smaller span.

I feel that it as an opportunity that had come at the right time .The list of brands launching new campaigns during IPL is not restricted to primary sponsors such as DLF, Vodafone, Hero Honda and Citibank. It also includes brands such as Wrigley’s Orbit chewing gum, Cinthol soap, Nivea skin care, Adidas, Sprite, Cadbury’sDairy Milk chocolate, Castrol engine oil, Reliance Communications, Idea Cellular, Hyundai Motor, General Motors, Parle’s 20:20 biscuits, Max New York Life Insurance, among others, that are looking to ride on the popularity of this event.So, we can say that IPL is emerging as India's Super Bowl for Advertisers.

Apart from the primary sponsors there are many brands such as Wrigley’s Orbit chewing gum, Cinthol soap, Nivea skin care, Adidas, Sprite, etc.  that are looking to ride on the popularity of this event. But I don't feel that the impact would be as great as it would have been if the IPL would have taken place in India. Ads are made in a different manner according to the people and country targeted. Now IPL will be held in SA and ads will be targeted to Indian public, sitting far away from there. Therefore, I feel that It wont have that great an impact.
