India National Cricket Team have already bagged the series, having won the first two games of the series. They would be looking to tick all the remaining boxes and complete a 3-0 whitewash, heading into the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on high.
While the action between bat and ball has been enthralling in the ongoing series, one thing that caught the attention of many was the green armbands worn by players of both teams for the third ODI. It has made many speculate about as to why both teams are doing the gesture.
Releasing the official statement, BCCI stated: "The two teams are wearing green armbands to support BCCI’s initiative "Donate Organs, Save Lives”. The initiative is spearheaded by ICC Chairman Mr Jay Shah. Pledge, spread the word, and let's be a part of something truly meaningful."
