London, July 2 (). After the Indian team’s journey in the Women’s T20 World Cup ended, all-rounder Deepti Sharma reached the world’s most prestigious Grand Slam tournament ‘Wimbledon’. Deepti saw some of the best players in the world playing at the All-England Club in London.
Deepti, one of the world’s best all-rounders in women’s cricket, performed brilliantly for the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2026, but the team was eliminated after losing to Australia in the league stage.
Deepti had come to watch the Wimbledon match for the first time. The All-England Club welcomed him on his first visit to Wimbledon. “Deepti Sharma welcome to Wimbledon,” read a post on the tournament’s official Instagram handle.
Dozens of celebrities come to Wimbledon every year to watch the world’s best tennis players play in the third Grand Slam of the year. Deepti is the second Indian cricketer to go to Wimbledon in two days. On Wednesday, former India opener Shikhar Dhawan was seen on the center court of the All-England Club.
On Thursday, top players like Alexandra Ela, Marie Bouzkova and Emma Navarro won their respective matches to reach the semi-finals of the women’s singles.
21-year-old Ella of the Philippines won 3-6, 6-2, 6-0 against Maya Joint and made it to the third round for the first time. With this, Ella became the first Filipino player to reach the third round of Wimbledon.
No. 21 seed Boujkova recovered from an early break in the first set to defeat Grant 7-5, 6-3 and reach the third round of Wimbledon for the third time. Her next match will be against last year’s Wimbledon quarter-finalist Lyudmila Samsonova.
At the same time, Navarro, who lost to Bouzkova in the Nottingham final, defeated Oksana Selekhemteva 3-6, 6-4, 6-1 and made it to the third round at the All England Club for the third consecutive year. Navarro had reached the quarter-finals in 2024 and the fourth round last year.
