The description for the shirt worn by Gill, the highest run-scorer of the series India drew 2-2, on the auction website gave an idea of the image he has in the country: “This special-edition shirt, worn in support of the Ruth Strauss Foundation, features the official India Test crest and shows visible signs of match wear, with staining and unwashed. Gill, renowned for his graceful stroke play and calm temperament, is one of the brightest talents in world cricket. Shirt is unwashed and match worn—a rare collector’s item from a memorable day at the Home of Cricket."

The overall highest bid was earned by a print of artist Sacha Jafri’s canvas painting of the 2019 World Cup Winning Moment – £5,000 (Rs 5.88 lakhs).

Every year, one day of a Lord’s Test is dedicated to former England captain Andrew Strauss’ foundation, Red For Ruth, as cricketers, broadcasters, and the public wear red. Initiated in memory of Ruth Strauss, his late wife, who died of cancer, this initiative has become a significant part of the cricket calendar.

Before the match between India and England, the foundation had said that through the generosity and support of fans over the past six years, it had assisted over 3,500 family members navigating grief and trained more than 1,000 cancer care professionals in handling bereavement.
