A winner of 17 Grand Slam titles, Federer today expressed his loyalty towards the Indian cricket team, as he posted a picture of himself with the Indian jersey.
“Dressing up for a Gentleman’s game today. #BleedBlue,” wrote Federer along with picture. Federer is no stranger to cricket, as he and Indian batting legend Sachin Tendulkar are known to be sharing quite a camaraderie with the iconic cricketer a regular visitor to Wimbledon every year to see the Swiss play.
