Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], March 9 (ANI): The final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in Ahmedabad had everything fans could ask for: high-octane cricket, a roaring crowd, and a star-studded celebration to wrap up the night.

As India defeated New Zealand in the World Cup final on Sunday, March 8, at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the closing ceremony featured an exciting musical lineup with global pop icon Ricky Martin alongside Indian music stars Falguni Pathak and Sukhbir Singh. However, what really stole the show was Martin grooving with full energy to a hit Punjabi track.

The International Cricket Council took to Instagram on Sunday evening to post a video featuring the pop icon. In the clip that has now gone viral, Martin can be seen enjoying the atmosphere inside the stadium as he grooves to Sukhbir's chart-topping track 'Oh Ho Ho Ho.' Dressed casually in a white T-shirt, the singer can be seen jumping and vibing to the music while fans around him, cheered and danced along.
