UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak: Legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar rang the iconic five-minute bell to begin day one of the Lord’s Test between India and England on Thursday. The five-match series, being played for the trophy named after Tendulkar and James Anderson, is level at 1-1.
Tendulkar, accompanied by his wife Anjali, waved to the crowd at Lord’s before doing a namaste and ringing the bell to kickstart the proceedings in a crucial game for both teams. He was later spotted talking to former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
The ringing of the bell by cricketing legends outside the bowlers’ bar at Lord’s is a tradition started in 2007 and has been previously carried out by legendary Indian players like Sunil Gavaskar, Sourav Ganguly, and Rahul Dravid.
