Bangladesh wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim provided financial support to 50 wheel chair cricketers.
“Mushfiqur ‘bhai’ provided financial help to those who played international matches and represented national team,” Captain of the physically-challenged cricketers Mohammad Mohsin said on Wednesday.
He said the financial assistance was sent to the players through mobile banking.
Mohsin said the assistance was given to the wheel chair players from all parts of the country. “We’re distributing the money to the players through mobile banking,” he said. “This is very good news for us that a player like Mushfiqur Rahim came up as the assistance of us,” he added.
Mushfiqur has already given the half of his monthly salary to the Cricketers’ Welfare Association of Bangladesh’s (CWAB) fund along with other national players to raise fund for the Covid-19-affected people.
