Rahim Announces Donating Player Of The Match Prize Money To People Affected By Bangladesh Floods
Spinners Shakib Al Hasan: Wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim, whose mammoth 191 was instrumental in Bangladesh registering their first-ever Test win over Pakistan by ten wickets at Rawalpindi, announced that he would be donating prize money from his Player of the Match award to people affected by floods back home.
Rahim’s 191 helped Bangladesh take a 117-run lead and pushed Pakistan on the backfoot, as they posted 565 in the first innings. Spinners Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz took seven wickets between themselves to bowl out Pakistan for just 146 and Bangladesh chased down 30 with immaculate ease to get a historic win in the country’s Test cricket history.
“This prize money, I just want to donate to the flood-affected people in Bangladesh. So, I want to donate this prize money to them and also I just want to request all the people back home and for my country those who can donate and also help in this cause," said Mushfiqur after the match ended.
