Mushfiqur Rahim's heartwarming gesture after Bangladesh's historic win

Former Bangladesh skipper Mushfiqur Rahim has captured hearts with a touching gesture following his team's historic victory over Pakistan in the first Test of the two-match series at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

In a thrilling encounter, Bangladesh secured their first-ever Test win against Pakistan, chasing down a modest 30-run target in the final innings. This victory gives the visiting team a 1-0 lead in the series. 

Rahim, who played a pivotal role with a standout century in the first innings, was named Player of the Match.

Describing his innings as one of the finest of his career, Rahim expressed his gratitude towards his coaching staff and team management for their support. 

"This is one of my finest (knocks) so far, because we haven't done that well overseas. All the players prepared well in Pakistan and back home as well. Before the Test series, there was a two and a half months gap," Rahim said.

All the players and management were there, the other white-ball players were playing in the World Cup. I'm thankful to the coaching staff and management. When I meet all these guys, it's a luxury for him (Shanto) and I try to give my best," he added.

In a heartwarming move, the 37-year-old cricketer announced that he would be donating his Player of the Match prize money to aid the flood-affected people in Bangladesh. 

"Doing well for my country inspires me. I want to make an announcement, want to donate my prize money as there's been flood back in Bangladesh," he concluded.
