When India and Pakistan face off, the match rarely stays confined to the pitch. It spills into timelines, brand war rooms, and real-time creative battles. The February 15 clash at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup was no different. As India registered a commanding 61-run victory, brands were quick to latch onto the big talking point of the night: the 8-1 scoreline.

The number carries weight. With this win, India extended their head-to-head record against Pakistan in men’s T20 World Cups to 8-1, the most wins any team has recorded against a single opponent in the tournament’s history. It also marked India’s sixth consecutive T20I win over Pakistan and stretched their unbeaten streak in ICC limited-overs tournaments to 16 matches.

For marketers, the dominance offered a cultural shorthand, a stat fans instantly recognised and celebrated. Within minutes of the result, brands flooded social media with creatives riffing on the 8-1 moment, turning cricketing supremacy into humour, nostalgia, and topical storytelling. Here’s a look at some brand creatives we spotted celebrating India’s win.
