Dhoni will not be present in person but he has donated his wicketkeeping gloves and pads used in limited overs while Test vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane donated his autographed India jersey for the fund-raiser.
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has decided to donate a couple of his jerseys while Bangladesh cricketer Shakib Al Hasan has given his autographed bat for the auction among others.
The entire amount collected will be handed over to Bapi Majhi's family as he is undergoing treatment for liver cancer. A part of the amount will be given to Chakraborty's wife for the education of her children.
