Before India’s important match against Zimbabwe in Chepauk on Thursday (February 26), Anirudh Ravichander is likely to perform at the stadium before the game starts.

Anirudh, who created the T20 World Cup anthem for this tournament, is expected to sing a mix of his most popular songs to entertain the fans. This development was announced officially by the ICC on Tuesday (February 23). The India-Zimbabwe game is scheduled to begin at 7 pm IST and Anirudh's performance will start an hour earlier at 6 pm IST.

Anirudh to Perform Before Big India vs Zimbabwe Match at Chepauk

The gates at Chepauk will open from 4 pm, so fans can enter the stadium smoothly without much confusion. A full crowd is expected because it is an India match and a very important game in the tournament. Earlier in the day, South Africa will play West Indies, and that result will also be very important for the defending champions.

If West Indies win that match, India’s chances could be almost over even before they play Zimbabwe. The best situation for India is if South Africa win, which would make the qualification scenario simple and clear for them. In such a scenario, beating Zimbabwe and West Indies will ensure a semifinal berth for India without the complexities of net run rate coming into play.

February 26 is a very important day for India’s chances in the T20 World Cup 2026. Anirudh’s show will be the second time there is a music performance before an India match in this tournament. The first was when Hanumankind performed before the India vs Pakistan game on February 15.
