But this match was about far more than cricket.🎗️
The exhibition match was dedicated to cancer patients around the world and everyone whose life has been affected by cancer. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made an individual contribution toward this cause. The contributions collected have been sent to the Canadian Cancer Society.
