On their six-day-long tour, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Kate Middleton, on Sunday took part in a cricket match between beneficiaries and representatives of three charities based in Mumbai - Magic Bus, Doorstep, and India's Childline.

Watch it here:

At Mumbai's Oval Maidan, the Royal Couple met with the underprivileged kids, budding cricketers and spent some time playing the unofficial national sport of the country. Kate, a high-school hockey player in her time, showed off her batting skills to Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, and Indian cricket veteran Dilip Vengsarkar.

Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton, who arrived in India in a red printed Alexander McQueen outfit, opted for a long printed tunic by Indian designer Anita Dongre for her day outing.

The Royal's outfits for her visit in the country have a distinct Indian touch with her red McQueen dress featuring paisley themed print, while the tunic that she wore at a charity event at The Oval Maidan in Mumbai, had Mughal details.

Kate teamed her tunic with nude wedges while keeping the rest of the look simple and summery. Prince William opted for a crisp white shirt with sleeves rolled up paired with blue trousers and suede shoes.

Later, the Royals took a small tour of Mumbai in an open bus with children from local charity Apnalya who works with children in Mumbai’s slums. 

In the evening, the tinsel town will give a grand reception and dinner to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Some of the biggest names in business and Bollywood will attend the event to celebrate Mumbai's film and creative industries.
