Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League: Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal expressed his gratitude after being discharged from the hospital following a heart attack on Monday. Although he retired from international cricket in January 2025, Tamim is still active in domestic cricket. He was captaining Mohammedan Sporting Club in a Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League match against Shinepukur Cricket Club when he began feeling unwell right after the toss.

Tamim was initially taken to a local hospital for treatment, but later collapsed and had to undergo angioplasty surgery on Monday. The veteran said his life was saved due to the timely cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) given to him at the time of his heart attack.

“By all your prayers, I am at home now. In these four days, I have discovered my surroundings as I found a new life. All that realisation has only love and gratitude. I have had your love throughout my career. But now I have felt it even more intensely. I am really overwhelmed,” said Tamim in a message posted in Bangla on his Facebook page.
