Asia Cup: Nizakat And Zeeshan Carry Hong Kong To 143/7 Against Bangladesh
Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium: Despite having sluggish starts, Nizakat Khan and Zeeshan Ali hit 42 ad 30 respectively as Hong Kong posted 143’7 in their allotted 20 overs against Bangladesh in the Asia Cup Group B clash at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium on Thursday.
Inserted into batting first, Hong Kong struggled to get going as Bangladesh kept thing s in control in the powerplay. Nizakat and Zeeshan eventually stitched a 41-run stand for the third wicket, which ensured Hong Kong avoided a repeat of their collapse against Afghanistan.
Captain Yasim Murtaza injected momentum with a brisk 28 off 19 balls, but a flurry of wickets in the death overs curtailed Hong Kong’s push for a big finishing flourish. For Bangladesh, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Rishad Hossain and Taskin Ahmed took two wickets each.
