Cricketing stars make a child’s day

For when Ranatunga came out from the dressing room after net practise, the Sri Lankan skipper immediately headed towards the boy, greeting Ajit by shaking hands. Ranatunga was soon followed by the other cricketers from Sri Lankan and Indian team as and when they came out, who took the kid among their fold, lavishing him with autographs, and above all, their heartfelt love that would have warmed a million hearts. The cricketers invited the boy to see the match, however, the boy did not turned up due to his annual examination.

Aravinda de Silva, touched the most by Ajit’s afflictions, gifted him a self autographed T-shirt, even as the boy himself was too emotional to speak. A small act of kindness can certainly go a long way in changing a life.
