Afghanistan’s star cricket player Rashid Khan, who is part of the national team currently in India, said Sunday he will donate all of his World Cup 2023 earnings to the victims of Saturday’s deadly earthquake in Herat province.

So far, the official death toll is over 2,000. Extensive damage has been reported, with entire villages destroyed.

A 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck on Saturday, followed by a string of aftershocks, one measuring 6.3 and another 5.9.

In a message on X, formerly Twitter, Rashid said: “I learned with great sadness about the tragic consequences of the earthquake that struck the western provinces (Herat, Farah, and Badghis) of Afghanistan. I am donating all of my #CWC23 match fees to help the affected people.”

He also said that he will soon launch a fundraising campaign for the earthquake victims.

Based on information from the Ministry of Natural Disasters, more than 2,053 people are confirmed dead, with 9,240 injured.
