In a video uploaded by Wimbledon's social media accounts, the batting great could be seen answering some interesting questions regarding cricket and tennis.

On being asked who is that one tennis player he would love to bat with, Tendulkar named Roger Federer.

The 'Little Master' also gave the reason behind his selection of the Swiss Maestro as his batting partner.

“He has got cricketing connections, where his mother is from South Africa and he follows cricket, and when we sat together and chatted, we discussed a lot of cricket and not just tennis. So, it has to be Roger.”

Tendulkar also revealed the two players who he thought would be great doubles partner. "Warney and Yuvraj would be the ones," he said.

"There are two strong contenders. Unfortunately, we lost Shane Warne a couple of years ago but I enjoyed playing tennis with Warney. In fact, we played together in London

And the other guy is from the Indian cricket team, Yuvraj Singh, who has also retired."
