Joining the clan is Bangladeshi cricketer Mushfiqur Rahim who has decided to put his 'very precious' bat on auction to raise funds.

Earlier, England's Jos Buttler had auctioned his 2019 World Cup final jersey and raised more than 65,000 pounds (USD 80,000) for two London-based hospitals to combat COVID-19.
Buttler, speaking on Monday, said: “It’s a very special shirt but I think it takes on extra meaning with it being able to hopefully go to the emergency cause.”
