When the Indian Premier League (IPL) season arrives, cricket fever spreads across offices, clients, partners, and fans alike. For brands, it’s one of the most exciting opportunities of the year to connect with people through creative corporate gifting.
At BrandSTIK, we’ve seen how the right cricket merchandise can turn a simple gift into a powerful brand experience. Whether it’s celebrating team spirit, rewarding employees, or engaging clients during the cricket season, custom IPL-themed merchandise helps brands stay memorable.
Over the years, we’ve created several custom cricket merchandise kits for leading brands, and the best part is that every product can be customized with your brand colors, logo, and design.
If you’re planning your IPL 2026 corporate gifting strategy, here are some of the top custom cricket merchandise ideas that brands love.
1. Custom Cricket Gifting Kit
One of our most exciting and talked-about creations was a premium cricket-themed gifting kit developed for Kolkata Knight Riders.
This exclusive set combined technology with cricket-inspired design, making it both functional and collectible.
The kit included:
- Logo-shaped 8GB Pen Drive
- Foldable Headphones
- Customised Credit Card-Shaped 4000mAh Power Bank
Each product was designed with team-inspired colours and branding, creating a cohesive merchandise experience.
While this set was originally designed for Kolkata Knight Riders, the same concept can easily be customized for your brand or corporate campaign during IPL season.
Whether you want your company colors, a cricket-themed design, or a fan-inspired merchandise kit, BrandSTIK can design it end-to-end.
2. Autographed Cricket Miniature
Sometimes the simplest merchandise becomes the most memorable.
For Delhivery, we created a beautiful autographed cricket miniature set that instantly captured attention.
The product featured:
- A wooden miniature cricket bat
- A cricket ball
- Custom branding stamp
- A display-ready collectible format
This gift worked perfectly as a desk collectible, making it ideal for employees, partners, or cricket-loving clients.
Miniature cricket collectibles have a unique advantage: they combine nostalgia, sports passion, and branding visibility in one compact gift.
3. Custom RCB Merchandise Kit
Cricket merchandise becomes even more powerful when team identity meets brand identity.
For Kotak Life, we created a Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) themed merchandise kit that blended team spirit with corporate branding.
The kit included:
- RCB-style Jersey
- Customized Water Bottle

It’s not just merchandise it’s a fan experience delivered in a box.

This merchandise idea feels incredibly authentic because the cricket ball itself becomes the centerpiece.
The product featured:
- A premium season leather cricket ball
- Custom autograph-style branding
- Elegant packaging suitable for corporate gifting
This gift works beautifully for premium clients, leadership gifts, and milestone celebrations during IPL season.
It also has a collector’s appeal, making it more than just another promotional item.

With the right design and branding, these sets become perfect seasonal merchandise for IPL marketing campaigns.
