Medical personnel were initially set to airlift Tamim to Dhaka but changed plans due to logistical difficulties, taking him to Fazilatunnesa Hospital instead.
Dr. Debashish Chowdhury stated that Tamim's condition worsened while moving towards a helipad, confirming a serious cardiac episode and minor heart complications.
