Did Beckham Copy Broad's Outfit At Wimbledon? England Pacer Makes Hilarious Claim
Stuart Broad has said that David Beckham copied his outfit at Wimbledon; both wore similar suits in the Royal Box.
Former England pacer Stuart Broad has claimed that David Beckham copied his outfit at Wimbledon, after both of them were seen wearing similar suits during the opening day of the Championships on Monday, sitting in the coveted Royal Box, with Gareth Southgate seated beside Beckham.
Beckham was on the list of guests expected to attend Centre Court matches on the opening day of Wimbledon. Others included Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne and Southgate.
Wimbledon 2025 is already serving big style statements, and starting things off in style was none other than Beckham. While he was the star attraction, a look at a viral image would show that Broad sported a similar outfit.
During the second Test at Edgbaston between India and England, commentator Nasser Hussain asked Broad how his week went. 'You copied him, haven't you?" Hussain laughed. Watch the video here:

'I actually think he has copied me," Broad claimed with a grin.
'When he walked into lunch, he put his hand out to shake hands, and he's had some surgery, big sort of plaster cast or something on his hand, and it was a bit awkward. I was sort of like, how firm a handshake do I go here?" Broad said.
'So I ended up sort of just doing like a bit of a tappy handshake with him, which was a little bit awkward, but no, it was a lovely day," Broad added.
Just last week, Beckham's wife Victoria shared a picture of him recovering in a hospital bed, arm in a sling.
'I broke my arm 23 years ago playing for England. I had a screw put in, and it needed to come out," Beckham later told DAZN Football.
Besides the aforementioned biggies, Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson and her eldest daughter Princess Beatrice were also present on Day 1 of Wimbledon.

"Arey bhai kal ya parso hi toh story daaali thi": Indian stars express awe, ridiculousness at Gill's monstrous run in England
Birmingham [UK], July 5 (ANI): The Indian cricketing fraternity expressed happiness as skipper Shubman Gill continued his monumental run with the bat during the second Test against England at Birmingham, displaying a sense of awe and ridiculousness at the consistency shown so far. Gill launched himself into the galaxy of greats, overcoming legends like Sunil Gavaskar and Virat Kohli and becoming the ninth batter to have a combo of a double ton and a century in a single Test match. Current Indian T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav posted a hilarious Instagram story congratulating Gill, remarking, 'Arey bhai kal ya parso hi toh story daaali thi, Wow Just wow' (Hey brother, I had just posted a story yesterday or day before, Wow Just Wow). Former World Cup-winning Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh hailed the skipper for making batting look 'effortless and full of composure'. 'Another innings and yet another century! Making it look effortless and full of composure, great going captain! @ShubmanGill,' posted Yuvraj on X. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan also hailed Gill's 'Insatiable' hunger for runs. 'Shubman Gill's appetite for runs is INSATIABLE! Another majestic 100 from the skipper--leading by example,' he posted on X. After a brilliant 269 in 387 balls in the first innings, Gill ended the second session of day four unbeaten at 100* in 130 balls, with nine fours and three sixes. His runs came at a strike rate of 76.92. He has become only second Indian after Gavaskar to hit a double ton and century in the same Test, scoring 124 and 220 against West Indies at Port of Spain in 1971. Other batters having achieved this feat include Australia's KD Walters, West Indies RG Lowe, Australia's Greg Chappell, England's Gooch, WI icon Lara, Sri Lanka's Sangakkara and Australia's Marnus Labuschagne. With a total of 369 so far (and still going), Gill has outdone Gavaskar to have the highest aggregate for India in a single Test. Gavaskar's Port of Spain masterclass in 1971 was worth a total of 344 runs. He has outdone ex-skipper and legendary batter Virat Kohli (243 and 50) to have the highest aggregate by an Indian captain in a Test match. Virat's effort came against Sri Lanka at his home stadium, Arun Jaitley Stadium, back in December 2017. Gill is the second Asian batter with 350-plus aggregate in a Test outside the subcontinent after Pakistan's Hanif Mohammad (354: 17 and 337) at Bridgetown in 1958.' The youngster is also the third Asian batter to have a 300-plus run aggregate in a Test taking place in South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia (SENA) countries after Rahul Dravid (305) and Sachin Tendulkar (301) did that in Adelaide and Sydney respectively in 2003-04. He is also the only third Indian captain to have a 100-plus score in both innings of the Test, besides Gavaskar (against West Indies in Kolkata, 1978), Virat (against Sri Lanka in 2017). Gill is the second player to record three hundred in his first two Tests as captain after Virat Kohli. Gill's masterful century after his classy double ton in the first innings has put India in a strong position in the second Test against England, with the visitors ahead of the hosts by 484 runs at Tea on the penultimate day. Rishabh Pant's scintillating innings of 65 runs off 58 balls helped India quickly pile up the runs. India was 304/4 at Tea with Gill (100*) and Jadeja (25*) unbeaten. India started the second session at 177/3, with Gill 24* and Pant 41* unbeaten at the crease. (ANI)
