Tamim Iqbal fell ill suddenly while playing a Dhaka Premier League match at the BKSP (Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protisthan) ground on Monday. The former Bangladesh national team captain experienced severe chest pain and was immediately taken to a hospital in Savar for treatment.
Initially, there were plans to airlift Tamim to Evercare Hospital in Dhaka. However, as his condition did not improve sufficiently for air travel, he was instead admitted to Fazilatunnessa Hospital, located near the BKSP.
Meanwhile, following the news of Tamim's illness, the 19th board meeting of the BCB Executive Committee, originally scheduled for today, has been postponed.
