In Thursday’s third game of the ACC Men’s T20 Asia Cup 2025 at Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi, Hong Kong set a low-key aim of 144 runs for Bangladesh.
When Bangladesh’s bowling unit reduced Hong Kong to 143/7 in their allocated 20 overs, captain Litton Das’ choice to field first paid off.
With just seven runs scored, Hong Kong’s innings got off to a rough start when Taskin Ahmed caught Anshy Rath (four) behind on the third ball of the second over.
When Tanzim Hasan Sakib swept up Babar Hayat (14) in the batting powerplay, the associate nation suffered yet another defeat and fell to 30/2 in 4.4 overs.
