Bollywood actor and Premier League Ambassador for India, Ranveer Singh, took to the turf for an exhibition cricket skills challenge against Premier League record goalscorer Alan Shearer at the Gallant Sports Arena here.
They were joined by youth players from Bengaluru FC, FC Goa, Reliance Young Champs, Chelsea FC, Manchester United and Southampton FC who are here competing in the Next Generation Mumbai Cup, an event hosted by the Premier League and Indian Super League to support football development in India.
Ranveer, who is starring in upcoming project named ’83 said: “First, I would begin by saying that it is such a surreal feeling to be able to spend a day with a legend like Shearer, I have grown up watching his exploits on the field, and having him present here in my hometown it’s a huge honor and privilege.”
Ranveer and Alan interacted with the academy players of the Next Generation Mumbai Cup, and played a friendly football match with the boys.
