With that in mind, I have made a contribution to the &quot;PM Cares Fund&quot;, specifically to purchase oxygen supplies for India&#39;s hospitals,&quot; wrote Cummins in a statement last week.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I encourage my fellow IPL players -- and anyone else around the world who has been touched by India&#39;s passion and generosity -- to contribute. I will kick off with $50,000,&quot; he further said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Meanwhile, CA on Monday said that it has pledged an &quot;initial donation&quot; of $50,000 towards India&#39;s fight against the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>CA also said that it is partnering with the Australian Cricketers&#39; Association (ACA) and UNICEF Australia to raise more funds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Australian Cricket has been deeply saddened by the devastation caused by this second coronavirus wave to hit India, a country with which Australians share a strong friendship and connection,&quot; it said in a statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Cricket Australia will make an initial donation of $50,000 and encourage Australians everywhere to give generously at this critical time in India&#39;s Covid-19 response,&quot; it further said.<\/p>\r\n",
