He had one, though what he would get from 120-130 yards away with that short 
lens (by size) he had on it, is anybody's guess. He is a committed 
photographer who has published books, and always has had a camera handy ever 
since I remember. He normally used to use Canon, but cricket makes you a 
mini oligarch, especially a legend of the game like him, so I suppose a 
Leica is appropriate! :-) Cheers Jayanand
