As a mark of respect for the CRPF personnel, who lost their lives in the Pulwama terrorist attack, the Indian cricketers yesterday sported special Army caps during the third ODI against Australia and donated their match fee to the National Defence Fund.

Captain Virat Kohli urged everyone to contribute towards the National Defence Fund so that the money could be used for the welfare of the families of the slain CRPF Personnel. It is learnt that the idea for this tribute was floated by MS Dhoni, who holds the honorary rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Territorial Army.
