The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced that it will provide financial support for FIDE Master Tahsin Tajwar Zia, son of the late Grandmaster Ziaur Rahman, as he embarks on a series of international chess tournaments.
Tahsin had participated in various chess tournaments abroad, accompanied by his father GM Zia, who passed away while playing a chess match in August last year. Ever since, the chess prodigy has been facing financial constraints in participating in overseas tournaments.
It was once a different world for the father-son duo of GM Ziaur Rahman and FM Tahsin Tajwar Zia, who happily travelled the globe together to participate in various chess tournaments.
