CRICKET HAS A NEW ANTHEM, Spirit Of Cricket paying homage to the many characters and legends who inspire millions of crickets lovers around the world. Paul Costa’s powerful new single encourages sportsmanship and fair play for cricketers of all ages.
“The dreamers are clearing the pickets, and the seamers are tumbling wickets. It’s our love affair, pride in kit we wear. We’re living, the sprit of cricket”
The idea for the song came from Spirit Of Cricket Global founder Anthony Telfer who called on his good friend Paul to write the song for a group of cricket tragics who want to make a difference to how the great game is played.
The music video was filmed at the iconic Bradman Oval/Museum featuring cricket legends Jeff Thompson, Doug Walters and John Dyson.
