No expense spared on the background of that promo shot.
In all seriousness though, although he has not featured on the BBC TV coverage of Wimbledon before, it does look like (as mentioned above and by the look of his social media activity) that Qasa is a big follower of tennis. So although not the obvious choice for the role (I would have bet on Rishi Persad or Lee McKenzie who are seasoned BBC Sport and Wimbledon features) he looks like a good choice fot the job.
I think I saw somewhere that Gigi Salmon has been listed to present it.

I’ve heard Qasa Alom present some stand-in slots on BBC Radio Five Live but I’ve not seen him on screen before. For many years the Today at Wimbledon presenter has presented Eastbourne so he may well present it.
