PITCH foundation helps out Nadir, Rubel
Voluntary organization PITCH foundation, which was formed recently in order to support the game of cricket locally, donated TK two lakh respectively to ailing international umpire Nadir Shah and former national spinner Mosharaf Hossain Rubel. Both Nadir and Rubel are suffering from cancer.

''We have formed Pitch Foundation in order to help the needy and will be doing the same in future. A countless number of individuals who have worked tirelessly throughout their lives for the game are now in need of support. This is where PITCH Foundation wants to step in," PITCH foundation General Secretary Obeid R Nizam told reporters on Sunday.
