Cricket Australia has begun a drive to assist Pakistan in the aftermath of devastating floods. The Australian cricket board has encouraged fans to contribute to flood relief funds to help those in need.
Millions of people have been affected by disastrous floods in Pakistan. While the government has asked the rest of the world to help people in need by donating to the flood relief fund, Cricket Australia has also come to Pakistan’s aid. Cricket Australia launched a social media campaign urging individuals to make donations to UNICEF for flood victims.
Taking to social media platforms, Cricket Australia wrote, “It’s been devastating to see the effects of torrential rains in Pakistan, with one-third of the country under water and more than 33 million people affected.”

The Pakistani-Australian batter, Usman Khawaja, also supported the campaign with a special video message encouraging people to donate to the flood relief fund for Pakistan.
Devastating floods in Pakistan. Over 1300 people have passed away so far. Families lives have changed forever. Many whom will never be able to rebuild again. Please donate if you can. As little or as much as possible. It will make a world of difference 🙏🏾 https://t.co/VMPtjsZLbP pic.twitter.com/I8586wRMay

Yes, donate to UNICEF, UNHCR, UNDP and Al-Khidmat, but donating to PMs fund has no surety that the donation will reach to the flood affectees. The PM and his whole family is facing corruption charges and our PM is on bail from court, while his elder brother has escaped the jail and is a ‘proclaimed offender” living London. They are stoling Government money, launder it and purchase expensive property in England and other Europian countries.
