CRICKETERS GET VACCINATED

Bangladesh ODI skipper Tamim Iqbal and all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz being administered the Covid-19 vaccine yesterday. A number of Bangladesh cricketers, who are expected to be named in the preliminary squad for the upcoming New Zealand tour, got the coronavirus vaccine at the Kurmitola General Hospital under the supervision of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB). "The thing about vaccination is that if you know how helpful it is for you then I think your fear will be reduced. I will not deny that I was afraid. When the first approach was made, I was not sure whether to take it or not. But after talking to the BCB and when many people suggested that it is normal to have symptoms, it seemed to me that I could take it," said Tamim after getting vaccinated.
