Garfield Sobers, arguably cricket's greatest all-rounder, led a special tribute to Muhammad Ali at Lord's on Friday that coincided with the boxing legend's funeral.
The two sporting icons met at Lord's back in 1966 when Sobers was a member of the West Indies side playing England in a Test match at "the home of cricket" and heavyweight star Ali was in London for his second fight with Britain's Henry Cooper.
