The batting gloves worn by former Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli during his explosive innings of 82 not out off 53 balls in the ICC T20 World Cup match against Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) last year garnered a whopping $5,750 (approximately Rs 3.2 lakhs). This impressive sum was achieved during the Chappell Foundation's 6th Annual Dinner, which took place at the Sydney Cricket Ground on September 13.
It was a great night and an exceptional fundraising outcome for The Chappell Foundation. We don't get to see the three Chappell brothers together too often. Just so special how sport (cricket) brings people together.
