Eng vs Ind 2nd Test Live: Lord’s was painted ‘Red for Ruth Day’| Check Why English players wear different Jersey

ENG vs IND Live: Lord’s was painted red on Friday, the second day of the second Test match took place between England and India. On Red for Ruth Day, players on both teams will wear special commorative shirts with the Ruth Strauss Foundation logo and red playing numbers.

The annual Red for Ruth Day will help raise awareness of the problems parents and children face when they face tragedy. The foundation was established by former England captain Sir Andrew Strauss in memory of his late wife Ruth. She died of non-smoking lung cancer in December 2018 at the age of only 46.

Through Friday’s initiative, the foundation hopes to expand its support service to thousands of families across the country and launch its training program for health professionals. It also supports the need for more research into non-smoking lung cancer.

The Raid for Ruth has already received support from Sachin Tendulkar. He has signed his 290 A4 prints celebrating the 2011 World Cup final victory and has been put up for auction by the foundation. The world famous IMAX cinema in London also lights up red in honor of Red for Ruth’s Day.
