The floods has inflicted immense and irreversible damage in terms of loss of crops, livestock, human life, and infrastructure. More than 1,200 people have been reported dead whereas the impact of the floods is yet to be fully felt by Pakistan's economy.

The Lahore Qalandars winning player took his demands to social media and claimed he will be putting up his jerseys for auction and all the money will be directed towards the victims.

"Imagine if a million of us donate just a dollar each, within no time we will be able to raise a million dollars which can help out a lot of people," he said.
