When India and Pakistan line up for the match today, the home crowd may be dancing to the beats of Dil Jashn Bole (The heart says celebrate) – the ICC’s official anthem for the World Cup. The Hindi-language song, composed by music director Pritam, features Bollywood star Ranveer Singh dancing in his characteristic exuberant style.

The away crowd, however, is likely to be grooving to the beats of Pakistan Cricket Board’s official anthem – Koi Nahi Like Us (There is no-one like us). The catchy rap song, an ode to Pakistan’s players, showcases the country’s cricketing prowess. It has even impressed many Indians, who have been leaving appreciative comments on YouTube.

And what is the World Cup without its unofficial anthems? Some musicians in India’s Chennai city have released a Tamil song in the Carnatic music style (southern Indian classical music) - called Cricket Endraal Bhaaratham (Cricket is India) - to cheer for the home team.
