Exceptional hitting by Khushdil Shah to help Pakistan post 193/2 in 20 overs
Pakistan scored 29 runs in the last over with four sixes in it from the bat of Khushdil. Rizwan finishes the innings with 78 runs in 57 balls with the help of six boundaries and a six. Zaman also contributed in the middle with a well-paced fifty. Hong Kong's bowling fell apart in the death and conceded just too many runs. They will have to put up brilliant hitting to chase this down.

100-run partnership between M Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman
Much needed a partnership between M Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman. The duo are slowly shifting the innings in the top gear and with batsman like Asif Ali yet to come Pakistan are eyeing a big score. Zaman also completes his fifty with a 101-meter six.

Fifty for Mohammad Rizwan, PAK bounce back
42 ball fifty for M Rizwan. The knock looks sluggish but you got to give credit to Hong Kong bowlers. Rizwan rescued Pakistan after the wicket of captain Babar Azam in the third over. Pakistan will be eyeing a total of around 190.

Slow start for PAK after Babar's wicket
Similar kind of the start by Pakistan, India had the same run rate against Hong Kong after seven overs. PAK lost Babar and thus they are trying to compensate. Pakistan bat deep so they will be eyeing around 180-190.

Here we go then!
M Rizwan and Babar Azam are out in the middle. Hong Kong will rely on their bowling unit to deliver while Pakistan will want to make a statement with dominating win over Hong Kong and meet India in Super 4 game on Sunday.
2 September 2022, 19:09 PM
Both team captains at the toss
Babar Azam: We would have batted first. We wanted to put runs on the board and put them under pressure. We have the same team. Every match is a new match, so we'll try to play our best cricket. Our confidence is the same. It was a tight game (against India), looking forward to this game.
Nizakat Khan: We are gonna bowl again. We are very good at chasing. We are going to make sure today that we stick to our plans and execute them. Back in Hong Kong, we play on slow, low wickets. This is very similar and we also rely on spin. We bowled well till the 13th over. Today, we have a very good plan and I am sure that the boys will do well. We are going with the same team.

Hong Kong won the toss and opted to field first against Pakistan in the last group stage match of the Asia Cup 2022 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Friday.

Pitch Report | Wasim Akram
"This pitch hasn't changed in the last 35-odd years. It looks slightly wet, I had a word with the groundsman who said it's not wet but it's the colour of the clay itself. That's why it's dark. In the beginning, the ball will definitely skid here. This is a pitch where the batters should go straight. The batsmen should take their time, get their eyes and play their shots. The bowlers should try to hit the stumps every time."

Hong Kong's Babar Hayat sends warning to Babar Azam's Pakistan ahead of clash in Asia Cup 2022, says THIS
"The pressure will certainly be there. Pakistan is a big team and they have a good bowling attack. Perhaps the best bowling attack in the tournament. Pressure will be on both teams. It is not that the pressure will be only on one team. We will try our best to win matches."
