The Indian Cricket League (ICL) has unveiled its indigenous cheerleaders’ squad, the ICL Zeebras. And guess what? Rakhi Sawant will lead the squad as the Queen Cheerleader. The squad will be present at every match of the second season of the league that begins at Hyderabad on October 10. Rakhi has already begun to talk about it. “Cheerleading is not just tamasha (mindless drama). It is a sport by itself. Until now, it was the exclusive domain of the international cheerleading troupes. But, thanks to ICL, this country will now have an indigenous cheerleaders’ squad,” she said.
The ICL Zeebra squad comprises eight other cheerleaders – Ritika, Preeti, Jessica, Geeta, Richa, Sharvari, Jayshree and Sangeeta. They will perform across all the match venues – Gurgaon, Panchkula, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad. Sawant has personally auditioned and hand-picked the squad members and their performances will be designed by a Mumbai-based choreographer. “I can’t wait to don my Zeebra outfit and break into a jig every time Rohan (Gavaskar) or Raviraj (Patil) hit a six. I’m sure, this will be one cheerleading squad that the country will remember for a long time,” Rakhi added.
