The International Cricket Council (ICC) unveiled the official anthem of the 2023 Cricket World Cup, 'Dil Jashn Bole,' on Wednesday, September 20.
This anthem is a collaborative effort between Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh and composer Pritam.

The music video not only captures the excitement of the global cricket fan community but also serves as a unifying force, bringing together fans from different cultures and nations.
The anthem is designed to celebrate the spirit of cricket and ignite the passion of fans, embodying the fusion of India's deep-rooted love for the sport with the national pride of all participating nations, creating an unparalleled global sporting spectacle.
This edition of the Cricket World Cup marks its return to India after a 12-year hiatus and will be hosted across 10 cities.
The tournament kicks off with the opening match between England and New Zealand, a rematch of the 2019 World Cup final, scheduled for October 5 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Team India will commence their campaign against Australia in Chennai. It's worth noting that the last time the World Cup was held in India, MS Dhoni led the Indian team to a historic victory in Mumbai.
Speaking about the Anthem launch, superstar Ranveer Singh said "As a part of the Star Sports family and a die-hard cricket fan, being part of this anthem launch for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is truly an honor. It's a celebration of the sport we all love."
Pritam said, "Cricket is India's greatest passion and composing 'Dil Jashn Bole' for the biggest World Cup ever, has been a tremendous honour for me. This song is not just for 1.4 billion Indian fans but for the whole world to come to India and be a part of the biggest celebration ever."
