WEST INDIES CRICKET
AWARDS: Clio Sports Shortlist in Brand x Team; Atlanta Gold Addy in Integrated Branded Content Campaign
For decades, West Indies Cricket (the Windies) dominated on the world stage and the islands all stood together to cheer them on. Recent years have seen a drop in the team’s success, and with it, the pride and unity between West Indian islands.
With the West Indies hosting this year’s T20 Cricket World Cup, CG Insurance wanted to reignite the spirit of the West Indies and become a conduit of cricket culture.

MUSIC VIDEO
We tapped former Windies captain and musical icon Dwayne Bravo to write and record a new rallying cry and unite the islands around the team. Shot by director to stars like Pitbull and Nicki Minaj, and featuring a surprise cameo by CG spokeswoman Aunt Angie, the music video made waves across the internet, reigniting the spirit of the Windies and bringing the islands together.
