Indian cricketer Vaibhav Sooryavanshi enjoyed a memorable first visit to Wimbledon on July 12, attending the men's singles final alongside Yuvraj Singh, Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson as the 15-year-old soaked in the atmosphere at Centre Court.

Fresh from a breakthrough year in cricket, Vaibhav was among several Indian cricketers at the All England Club, where he spoke about experiencing one of sport's most iconic venues for the first time.

"I'm here to watch the final match and see what the experience is like, watching live and observing how players perform in the finals. It should be a great experience," Vaibhav said on JioStar.

Asked which player from tennis' new generation has impressed him the most, Vaibhav backed world No. 1 Jannik Sinner to come out on top in the Wimbledon final.

"I've really liked Sinner, the way he has dominated throughout the tournament. Hopefully, he wins today," he said.
