Pakistan’s Potential Squad for World Cup 2023

Both Indian and Pakistani cricket fans started making jokes when they didn’t like the official song. They also said it was like the World Cup song “De Ghumake” from 2011.

Let’s look at what they said about it:

Very nice song. But shouldn't have sung

Ranveer singh make this Anthem more cringe 😬

Couldn’t even compose one decent anthem.🤦🏻‍♀️

Awesome song! Masterpieces of this magnitude shouldn't be made available to the general public, as it diminishes their exclusivity and sanctity. Please consider keeping it exclusively for use in ICC and BCCI offices, and refrain from releasing it to the general public.
