A bizarre incident was spotted ahead of the India vs England first Test match at Headingley when the national anthems of both the teams took place. The lady singing the Indian national anthem was not Indian and rather a British lady. She eventually sang both the English and the Indian national anthem. It came as a surprise to the fans given the accent was unfamiliar and the gesture from ECB was rather unexpected. They took to social media and shared their thoughts on the particular move from the organisers.

Who is That Female Singer
Who is that female singer, who's paid to sing the Indian national anthem? It was one of the worst-ever renditions at a sporting arena, rivalling that of Amitabh Bachchan's at the Eden Gardens in 2016 (India v Pakistan).#ENGvIND
