The world’s largest cricket jersey (66 m x 42 m), which got Guinness record recognition in the IPL final in Ahmedabad on Sunday, was prepared within nine days by Mumbai’s Flag Company.
The idea was conceptualized by the IPL owners.
“Well, something like this needs all hands-on deck. There wasn’t any one person at the flag company who wasn’t involved and didn’t contribute to this project. A 55-member team worked on this massive opportunity”, Dalvir Singh Nagi, the company CEO, speaking exclusively, said.
The time frame given was 15 days but the company was able to finish the product within 9 days.
“Printing (logos of all ten teams) and piecing the parts together required a lot of trials and errors and massive effort. The semi-finished printed fabric was shipped to the location for assembling and the piece was stitched and brought together to shape and live at the venue. It was overwhelming and exciting all at once!”, Nagi added.
