Cricket fans, get ready to turn up the volume! The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is just around the corner, and we’ve got the perfect anthem to get you in the mood. “Jeeto Baazi Khel Ke,” the official anthem, has just dropped, and it’s everything we hoped for and more, thanks to the incredible Atif Aslam.
After a long 28 years, Pakistan is finally hosting a major ICC event, and the excitement is palpable. Who better to capture that electrifying feeling than the one and only Atif Aslam? His voice, a blend of soulful power and dynamic energy, is the ideal match for the high-stakes drama of the Champions Trophy.
“Jeeto Baazi Khel Ke” isn’t just an Atif Aslam solo; it’s a true collaboration of Pakistani musical talent. The magic happens with Abdullah Siddiqui at the production helm, and the song is beautifully written and composed by Adnan Dhool and Asfandyar Asad. Siddiqui, known for his ability to weave emotion into modern production, has created a track that’s both polished and electrifying.
What makes this anthem stand out? It’s the perfect balance. It’s exciting, sure, but it also has a sense of grandeur. It avoids the overly aggressive tone that some sports anthems fall into, opting instead for a celebratory, almost festive vibe. The inclusion of a band baja arrangement is a stroke of genius, instantly evoking the grassroots feel of cricket in South Asia. If you loved previous PSL anthems like “Agay Dekh” (which also featured Aslam and Siddiqui), you’ll definitely feel the familiar energy here.
The music video is a visual treat too. Flags of all the participating nations, including India, wave proudly, and the dancers add to the overall festive atmosphere. It’s a vibrant celebration of cricket and the spirit of competition.

With the tournament kicking off on February 19th with a blockbuster clash between Pakistan and New Zealand, the release of this anthem makes the countdown feel incredibly real. I can already picture the stadiums filled with cheering fans, the energy buzzing, and “Jeeto Baazi Khel Ke” echoing through the stands.
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your jerseys, wave your flags, and crank up the volume! Cricket season is officially upon us, and Atif Aslam is leading the charge. Let the games begin!
