Debasis Sen, Birmingham: Fugitive liquor baron Vijay Mallya was seen today at the Edgbaston Cricket ground for the India-Pakistan clash in ICC Champions Trophy. Mr Mallya was seen in a white coat with a blue shirt, seated in one of the hospitality boxes. He looked distinctively aged after weathering the storm in the past few months. He was with Suhel Seth at the stands.
Mr Mallya’s brand Kingfisher is the official lager partner for the Champions Trophy cricket tournament which is being hosted by England and Wales Cricket Board.
Also present at the Edgbaston cricket ground was master blaster Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar, who is also the ambassador for UNICEF was specially invited by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to witness the match. He did make a brief appearance on the balcony of one of the boxes and was shown on the giant screen at the stadium. The fans immediately started chanting “Sachin, Sachin” on seeing him on the giant screen.
