Cricketers and endorsements are now not a new thing. With cricketers like MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli having the most brand associations in the country, there was a time when we would see them just once or twice on daily advertisements. Nostalgia hits hard with this one, as we remember these timeless ads from the past featuring some of our favourite cricketers – retired and active in the industry.
