Tamim taken to Dhaka

Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal has been transferred to Evercare Hospital in Dhaka from Savar.
The decision was made in consultation with Tamim’s doctors and family members.

He was transported by ambulance after Iftar and received police protocol on Tuesday.  

Tamim suffered a cardiac arrest at the Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protisthan (BKSP) in Savar on Monday during a Bashundhara Dhaka Premier League (BDPL) match between Mohammedan Sporting Club (MSC) and Shinepukur Cricket Club.

He received immediate emergency medical attention and was transferred to KPJ Specialized Hospital, where he underwent a successful angioplasty to clear a blockage in one of his heart arteries.
