10 cricketers who dared to sing

8. Virender Sehwag

The moment I say Virender Sehwag, all that we can remember are first ball fours and those wonderfully blazing centuries. However, it seems Sehwag has more to him than that. His love for music is well known among his fans. He has revealed in many press conferences that he keeps his mind open while batting and sings in his mind to keep himself calm. The usually shy Sehwag decided to croon a few lines for his fans and take a look on how it turned out.

9. Irfan Pathan

Now, this is a surprise. No one would have expected the soft-spoken Irfan Pathan to sing one of our favourite Bollywood songs this beautifully. In fact, the younger Pathan has always been full of promise and surprises. His spirited rendition of “Kabira” from Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani is as adorable as his hat-trick against Pakistan. Watch this video of him singing with his CSK teammates on the way to practice and decide for yourself.

10. Shoaib Akhtar

Shoaib Akthar is one of the fastest and feared bowlers that the game has ever produced. He seemingly produces magic not just with the ball but with his voice too. The Rawalpindi Express is a frequent guest to many Indian reality shows and doesn’t fail to sweep Indians off their feet with his charm and skills every time he makes an appearance. Take a look at his wonderful singing and get ready to be mesmerised.
