On the field, Tamim Iqbal is known as a serious character and is someone who hardly shows his emotions. However, on Thursday, the Bangladesh player broke his character and shared a light-hearted moment with the umpire as the duo shared a laugh. The moment occurred during the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) clash between Fortune Barishal and Dhaka Capitals.

Barishal needed a paltry 140 to win the match and they achieved the target without dropping a sweat. The side lost Najmul Hossain Shanto cheaply, but the duo of Tamim Iqbal and Dawid Malan steered the team past the winning line with a partnership of 117 runs for the second wicket.

Light hearted moment between Tamim and umpire

Despite playing dazzling shots in their partnership, Tamim Iqbal was the one who hogged the limelight, but not for his cricketing shots, but for his laughter riot with the umpire. During an over delivered by Thisara Perera, Tamim drilled a delivery to long-off and took as single. After reaching the non strikers end, he said something to the umpire and put his hand on his shoulders.

The Barishal batter shared a laugh with the umpire as the duo stole the limelight with their bromance.

Barishal steal an easy win!

This was a cakewalk for the Barishal side who thumped Dhaka with 8 wickets. Batting first, Dhaka posted 139 and never looked in command as they lost wickets at regular intervals.

Tanzid Hasan was the lone warrior who scored a gritty 62 but barring him, none of the batters stood tall as the team failed to post a match-winninbg total and lost the plot in the first innings itself.
