Lalit Modi posts photos of him, Vijay Mallya enjoying India-England test match at London's Oval
Fugitive billionaires Lalit Modi and Vijay Mallya have now shared photos of them enjoying the India-England test match at the Oval in London.
In posts on Instagram and X on Friday, Modi, who founded the Indian Premier League and fled India in 2010 after facing several charges of financial wrongdoing, shared photos of him with Mallya and others at the famed cricket stadium.
The photos also include explosive West Indies batsman Chris Gayle, who played for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Farokh Engineer, one of the original poster boys for Indian cricket.
He captioned the Instagram post, saying: "Enjoying the cricket at the #oval with @rima1b and Vijay Mallya and lots of friends."
In the post with the photos with Vijay Mallya, he wrote, "At the oval with @TheVijayMallya #universeboss #chrisgayle."

Mallya, 69, the former chairman of United Breweries and promoter of the now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines, fled India in 2016 after allegations of fraud.
The Indian government declared him a "fugitive economic offender" under the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act.
The businessman had defaulted on loans and owes banks in India approximately 9,000 crore.
In a podcast in June, he had said he would "seriously consider" returning to India if he is assured of a fair trial and a dignified existence.
