It was very interesting to me because most people in USA do not have any idea about cricket. Well, this is the age of Internet and the advertisement went to USA through Internet. Anyway, many people did not like it in USA and KFC has taken it off.
BBC reported:
It showed a white cricket fan trying to pacify a group of rowdy West Indian fans by handing around fried chicken.
When the advertisement reached America via the internet there were complaints.
It was accused of reinforcing a derogatory racial stereotype linking black people in the American deep south with a love of fried food.
