Tennis, tea and Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar is an annual fixture at Wimbledon. Over champagne lunches and tea and scones, the cricket legend and quasi-Londoner, who maintains a home in St John’s Wood, has mingled with other sporting giants in the Royal Box over the years.







Brian Lara - Wimbledon 2010

Tendulkar appears ready to catch a ball as Lara leans over to perhaps say “good reflexes, mate”. The two cricket greats seem to be enjoying the fruits (or strawberries) of their success.









Roger Federer - Wimbledon 2011

The picture which spread like fire over social media. Two of the very best in their respective sports enjoyed a snack together and then posed for the shutterbugs.












David Beckham - Wimbledon 2014

Tendulkar’s first Wimbledon post retirement. And a chance to schmooze with the king of Beckingham Palace, who might just be the captain of Tendulkar’s team in the Indian Super League football competition.
