Raina, 34, took to Twitter seeking leads for an oxygen cylinder in Meerut for his COVID-19 positive aunt. He wrote: “Urgent requirement of an oxygen cylinder in Meerut for my aunt. Age – 65. Hospitalised with Sever lung infection.Covid +. SPO2 without support 70. SPO2 with support 91. Kindly help with any leads," and tagged UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath.

Minutes later, Sood responded to the call. The actor wrote: Send me the details bhai. Will get it delivered.

Earlier, when Raina announced his retirement from international cricket, Sood said that "Cricket will never be the same without my brother @sureshraina3 .. for me you were, you are and you will always be the soul of our Indian cricket team mere bhai."
