Tauranga: The International Cricket Council (ICC) made the announcement in an event on Wednesday at Mt Maunganui Beach with Wigmore skydiving to the beach with the World Cup trophy in her hands.
Girl Gang, a track by New Zealand singer Gin Wigmore, has been announced as the official song of the 2022 ICC Women’s World Cup. The tournament is set to be hosted in New Zealand from March 4 to April 3, 2022.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) made the announcement in an event on Wednesday at Mt Maunganui Beach with Wigmore skydiving to the beach with the World Cup trophy in her hands.
“When you send a song out to the world you never really know what will happen,” Wigmore said, who when not performing goes by the name Virginia Butler.
“You do certainly have hopes for it. I guess I had thought it would make a great theme song for something. So when the ICC called I was like ‘heck yeah, that is so cool’. I’m really thrilled. It’s so exciting,” she said.
Wigmore had to work around her fear of heights for the event. “It is legit my biggest fear. But given what Girl Gang stands for, I figured I needed to follow through and take care of some business,” she said.
