Tamim Iqbal, who is seriously ill, has had a heart ring inserted in the hospital. He is currently in the CCU. Mohammedan Sporting Club manager Sajjad Ahmed gave this information at noon. Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) medical department head Debashish Chowdhury said that Tamim had suffered two heart attacks. Now the situation is improving.

Tamim went to BKSP in Savar this morning to play a Dhaka Premier League match. He also participated in the toss of the Mohammedan Sporting Club-Shinepukur match in the morning. However, before going into the field, he felt severe chest pain and was taken to Fazilatunnesa Hospital in Savar. The referee of the Mohammedan-Shinepukur match, Debabrata Pal, said from the hospital that Tamim’s angiogram was found to have a block in his heart.

A helicopter was taken to BKSP to bring Tamim to Dhaka. But due to his illness, he could not be taken on it. Then, an initiative was taken to put the ring on Fazilatunnesa Hospital. Mohammedan’s manager Sajjad Ahmed said, “We are waiting for him to regain consciousness. We will think about it later when his condition stabilizes a bit.” The admin posted a post on his official Facebook page informing about the blockage in Tamim’s heart and the ring being put on.
