ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday released the much-awaited Pakistan Super League (PSL) anthem for the seventh edition of the Twenty20 tournament.
The anthem, Agay Dekh, is produced by Abdullah Siddiqui and features singers Atif Aslam and Aima Baig.
The seventh edition of the T20 league is scheduled to start in Karachi on January 27 and will run through February 27.
“The wait is over. Presenting to you the official #PSL7 anthem,” read a post on the PSL official Twitter handle along with the video of Agay Dekh.
“Pakistani cricket has given us many moments to cherish, and this year’s PSL anthem carries forward the nationwide spirit and culture surrounding it,” read the song’s description on YouTube.
It said Agay Dekh urged audiences to “look beyond the binaries of victory and defeat, and enjoy the game in its purest essence.”
“Pakistan’s biggest sporting event is a festival and a celebration, and the anthem pays tribute to everyone who waits excitedly for this time of year,” it said.
“With ‘Agay dekh’ we have strived to showcase how much we love cricket, as well as capture the attitude, the fierceness and the banter that houses that love.”
Last year, PSL 6 anthem, Groove Mera, became an instant hit. The song featured Naseebo Lal, Aima Baig and Young Stunners.
