Actress Sherlyn Chopra turns rapper to wish Team India for the World Cup

Team India, captained by Virat Kohli, is currently plying its trade in the 2019 edition of the World Cup. The Men in Blue started with a six-wicket victory against South Africa at the Rose Bowl in Southampton and haven’t looked back ever since. They are currently playing New Zealand in the first semi-final and while the whole of India and a billion fans are cheering for them, actor Sherlyn Chopra created a rap song for the team and of course, she appeared in the video in her own style.

Earlier in the league stage, Team India went six games without a defeat and then lost to the hosts and favourites England by 31 runs at the Edgbaston in Birmingham. However, they sealed a spot in the semi-final after their 28-run victory versus Bangladesh at the same venue. Thereafter, Kohli’s men thumped Sri Lanka by seven wickets at the Headingley in Leeds. With 15 points from eight matches, India finished on top of the table with 15 points. One of their league matches against New Zealand in Nottingham got abandoned due to rain.

Australia lost to South Africa by 10 runs and India remained on top. It also meant that Kohli & Co were scheduled to lock horns with New Zealand in the first semi-final at the Old Trafford in Manchester. Prior to the all-important contest, wishes poured in for the national team. A win would take them to the Final, scheduled to take place on July 14 at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.

A creative move from Sherlyn

Sherlyn Chopra, the popular Indian actress, wished Team India in a unique manner. Sherlyn, who became the first Indian women to pose for the Official Playboy magazine, churned out an energetic rap. She uploaded the video on Twitter where she can also be seen praising the likes of opening batsman Rohit Sharma and fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah.

In the clip, she sings in Hindi: “Yeah, haa, 83 me pehli baar, 2011 me number 2, karenge jamke vaar, Kiwi ho ya Kangaroo, Hitman maare chati century, ukhare gilli Bumrah ke Yorker, aao jitaye Team India ko, hausle apne zara buland kar, Go Team India, get the World Cup, Humara hain World Cup, kya,”

Here’s the translation: “Yes, first time in 1983, number 2 in 2011, we’ll attack ferociously. Doesn’t matter whether it’s Kiwi (New Zealand) or Kangaroo (Australia). Hitman (Rohit Sharma) will get his sixth ton, Jasprit Bumrah’s Yorkers will rattle stumps, let’s go and win it for Team India. Let’s raise our spirit, the World Cup is ours”
