Newly appointed Bangladesh ODI captain and a bright son of the port city of Chattogram Tamim Iqbal continued his support to the people affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
In his latest initiative, Tamim stood beside 50 needy cricket coaches of his home town on Sunday.
Former national opening batsman Nafees Iqbal, who is also the elder brother of Tamim Iqbal, along with the officials of Chittagong Cricket Coaches Association (CCCA) handed over financial assistance to 50 local coaches Sunday evening.
CCCA president Saifullah Chowdury was also present on the occasion.
‘I myself and Tamim learned cricket from these coaches when we used to go to field with our late father Iqbal Khan. I think it is duty of all the students to stand beside their teachers if required,” Nafees said.
Tamim wanted to keep it (aid) within us but the coaches wanted to make this public thinking others might get inspired and come to their help,” Nafees added. ♦
