Watch: Spine-tingling ‘God Save the King’

England's cricketers sang a spine-tingling first televised rendition of 'God Save the King' before a sporting event in 70 years, at The Oval on Saturday.

A spine-tingling rendition of ‘God Save the King’ was sung ahead of the Test between England and the Proteas at The Oval.

It was the first time it had been sung at a televised sporting event since King Charles III ascended to the throne following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, on Thursday.
