Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has released the official anthem of the fourth edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) last night. The song titled as ‘Yeh Khel Deewano Ka’ has been sung by Fawad Khan and it didn’t impress the audience at all.
This time, the anthem is sung by a dashing Pakistani singer turned actor Fawad Khan instead of Ali Zafar. Fawad has been receiving a lot of criticisms for ruining the song. The song has been written and composed by Shuja Haider and also has a portion rapped by Young Desi.
Every year, a musical anthem is released for the PSL to promote the tournament. The first three PSL anthems were sung by Ali Zafar, who made PSL fans sway to its tunes.
As soon as the song released, PSL fans immediately took to Twitter to slam the actor for ruining the spirit of Pakistan’s biggest cricketing tournament.
His good looks got him into ACTING because he used to SING ffs not the other way round omg.
And yes the song is highly disapointing and maybe Fawad Khan wasnt the right person for this song but stop implying the 'good looks can get you anywhere' on him you look dumb— Fizza (@fizza_tweets) January 19, 2019
I think professional singers are now a days suffering from cold and flu that's why a chance was given to Fawad khan and a bad start of PSL it is.

#KhelDeewanoKa #PSL4 anthem is a total letdown, complete disaster and disappointing.
We have so many great great singers why they chose Fawad khan to sing? Bhai Ali Zafar se dushmani the tu Atif Aslam se gawa lete Ali Azmat se gawa lete, Shazad Roy se gawa lete Fawad Khan Kyun?— Po PayE (@FaHad55053917) January 19, 2019
