Irfan succeeded and deposited Rs 25,000 to his account; an amount he usually makes during an IPL season. Bhaskaran was quoted as saying by the Indian Express, “Last week Irfan Pathan sent some money (Rs 25,000). I bought groceries for the family. Since there was no work, I had borrowed money and have to pay it back. I don’t know how I will survive. If cricket doesn’t return soon, I will be gone.”
Irfan’s former teammate Dinesh Karthik also took note of the incident and wrote on his official twiiter handle “Special stuff @IrfanPathan. Well done and to many more such small deeds of generosity from everyone. Sweet of you @RaunakRK to bring up to light such positive stuff as well during these grim times.”
