Pakistan’s most versatile music icon, Atif Aslam, will electrify the opening ceremony of the second edition of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) at Birmingham’s historic Edgbaston cricket stadium this July.

The pop music maestro will deliver a thrilling live performance before the tournament opener on July 18, where hosts England Champions will face Pakistan Champions.

WCL, a premier T20 league, features retired and non-contracted champion cricketers from Pakistan, India, Australia, South Africa, the West Indies, and England. Last season, India Champions defeated Pakistan Champions in the final at Edgbaston to claim the title.

Renowned for his soulful voice, Atif recently sang and starred in the official anthem of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Jeeto Bazi Khel Ke. He has also lent his voice to multiple PSL anthems and performed at PSL opening ceremonies.

Beyond music, Atif has a deep-rooted passion for cricket. Before becoming one of South Asia’s most celebrated singers, he aspired to be a professional fast bowler during his school and college years.
