COVID-19: Pat Cummins donates $50,000 to PM Cares Fund

In a major development, Australian cricketer Pat Cummins has contributed $50,000 to the PM Cares Fund in the fight against COVID-19. Cummins, who is presently featuring in the Indian Premier League for Kolkata Knight Riders, tweeted about the same. The 27-year-old announced that his donation is aimed at increasing oxygen supplies for India's hospitals. Here is more.

Statement
An excerpt from Cummins' statement

"There's been quite a bit of discussion over here as to whether it's appropriate for IPL to continue while COVID-19 infection rates remain high. I'm advised that the Indian government is of the view that playing the IPL while the population is in lockdown provides a few hours of joy and respite each day at an otherwise difficult time for the country," wrote Cummins.
