Cricket players are highly talented in many areas and over the course of their careers, we have seen their passion to be involved in a variety of non-cricket related activities. The profound love that everyone has for music is commonly regarded as one of the most widespread passions among people. Spending time listening to music is their go-to method for unwinding and relaxing whenever they have a spare moment on their hands. Music has always played a crucial role in the life of cricket players, whether they are listening to songs or singing their favourite tunes, while playing the game. Nevertheless, there are a few people who have made additional progress in this field. They are a handful. Cricket players who have pursued music as a serious vocation, actively engaging in bands, and even offering their vocals to playback singing are included in the following compilation of cricket players.
