Former India coach Greg Chappell would be auctioning off a cricket bat signed by India’s 2007 World T20 winning side at a charity auction to raise funds to alleviate youth homelessness, the Mumbai Mirror reported on Friday.

The Chappell Foundation is hoping to raise over $200,000 at the charity dinner to be held on May 24 at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

“Out of the 400-odd attendees, about 30 will be Indian-Australians (NRIs) who have each paid the $275 entrance to support the cause (The Chappell Foundation helps alleviate youth homelessness) in their adopted country. They will undoubtedly bid hotly for a couple of auction items with an Indian flavour, including a bat autographed by the 2007 T20 World Cupwinning team.

“There will also be NRI interest in bidding for premium seating at the Adelaide Oval when India play Australia later this year and for a hospitality suite at the SCG during the subsequent Sydney Test against India, in January 2019,” Chappell was quoted as saying.
