The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is back with a bang, and its official anthem for PSL 9 season “Khul Ke Khel” carries the weight of both anticipation and controversy. Along with Aima Baig, Ali Zafar, the iconic artist who fueled the league’s early seasons with his anthems, returns to the spotlight amidst a backdrop of past allegations and a shift in management.
Zafar’s absence in previous seasons sparked debate, leaving fans nostalgic for his electrifying performances. His return has met with excitement. The message behind “Khul Ke Khel” – to play freely and express oneself wholeheartedly – resonates with the league’s spirit.
The anthem itself is a powerful ode to cricket’s unifying spirit. The energetic melody and Zafar’s vocals promise to energize fans as the tournament unfolds across four cities – Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Multan. With the first match between Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United just around the corner, the focus shifts to the action on the field.
Here is how fans are reacting to the anthem:
