Pakistan vs Hong Kong Asia Cup 2022 Match 6 Weather Forecast and Pitch Report: While India and Afghanistan are through to the Super Fours of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022, the vacancy for two is still untouched. The remaining league stage matches in the tournament will decide the next two teams to qualify for the Super Fours.



Tonight's fixture between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will cover one Super Four berth while the last booking will be done after the fixture of Pakistan vs Hong Kong.



Pakistan and Hong Kong faced defeat in their first match of the Asia Cup 2022. India cleanly handed a defeat to both the opponents, a couple of nights ago.



The do-or-die fixture between Pakistan and Hong Kong is slated to be held on 2nd September at Sharjah Cricket Stadium.&nbsp;



So far on the international stage, Hong Kong has never faced Pakistan in the T20Is. Both teams will meet for the first time in tomorrow?s match. However, in three meetings held for the One Day Internationals, Pakistan has convincingly emerged winners against Hong Kong.

<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong Weather Report:</h2>



The temperature is expected to remain a similar zone to what we have seen in the past few days. It?s certainly going to be hot and humid out there with the temperature hovering between 30 to 39 degrees. The humidity is expected at 70 per cent with absolutely no signs of rain. There may be partial cloud cover.



<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong Pitch Report:</h2>



The match will be held in Sharjah which will be a fresh surface as compared to Dubai International Stadium. The last match held here was two nights ago and before that, it had enough time to get a breather and regenerate.



Usually, due to short boundaries, this stadium serves well to the batters who enjoy tonking the opposition bowling unit. It?s the ground where 200 runs are easily on cards and we have seen that in the IPL games as well as during the last year?s T20 World Cup.



However, in the last fixture between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, the latter team got reduced to mere 127 runs in 20 overs. The spinners got healthy support from the surface.



Looking at Pakistan?s ability, they would look to breach the 200 runs mark in order to get in a safe position to win the game. Hong Kong on the other hand would restrict the Men in Green as much as possible.

Pakistan vs Hong Kong Asia Cup 2022 Match 6 Weather Forecast and Pitch Report

pakistan-vs-hong-kong-asia-cup-2022-match-6-whether-forecast-and-pitch-report

Pakistan vs Hong Kong: Pakistan will be going to head to head with Hong Kong in the last group stage match of the Asia Cup 2022. The match is going to be a highly significant one for both teams because it's going to determine which team shall join India from Group A in the super 4 stages.&nbsp;



Both the teams have earlier lost a game each to India. Tomorrow's game shall be a must-win for both teams. The winner shall be cementing its place in the last 4, while the loser shall have to pack their bags back home. It remains to be seen as to who wins the crunch match between Pakistan and Hong Kong tomorrow.



<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong: Preview and Playing XIs of both sides</h2>



<h3>Pakistan</h3>



Preview: Pakistan who have suffered a 5-wicket loss early on against India will be eager to learn from their mistakes and capitalise on their chances in the match vs Hong Kong. The team's batting display in particular seemed to be extremely frail against India in their previous match.&nbsp;



Prominent batsmen of the side failed to deliver quality performances to help their team post a formidable total on the board. Apart from some individual brilliance, the team will be hoping to execute a complete team performance tomorrow against Hong Kong. Pakistan will be hopefully keeping their side unchanged for tomorrow's match.



Possible Playing XI: Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asif_Ali_(actor)">Asif Ali</a>, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Shahnawaz Dahani



<h3>Hong Kong</h3>



Preview: Hong Kong who had to succumb to a 40-run defeat in their match against India will be looking to give it their all and win their must-win match against Pakistan. The team has displayed some quality performances so far, especially the way they managed to restrict the Indian top order for quite some time towards the earlier stages of the innings.&nbsp;



The team's conceding too many runs in the death cost them the game. The batters too failed to put up a quality show against a top-notch Indian bowling lineup. Prominent batters like Nizakat Khan, Murtaza and others failed to deliver with the bat. The team will be hoping to initiate an amazing turnaround in their match against Pakistan with some quality performances as a unit.



Possible Playing XI: Nizakat Khan (c), Yasim Murtaza, Babar Hayat, Kinchit Shah, Aizaz Khan, Scott McKechnie (wk), Zeeshan Ali, Haroon Arshad, Ehsan Khan, Ayush Shukla, Mohammad Ghazanfar.



<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong: Probable Best Performer</h2>



Probable best batsman of the match - Mohammed Rizwan



Mohammed Rizwan was Pakistan's highest scorer in the previous match vs India. His low strike rate was however a bit of an issue for his side.&nbsp;



The batsman will look to regain his best rhythm once again ahead of the crucial match vs Hong Kong. His top-quality big-hitting abilities and providing his team with quick-fire starts will be an important thing to watch for all the fans.



Probable best bowler of the match - Mohammed Nawaz



Mohammed Nawaz was the star with the ball for Pakistan in the match against India. He picked crucial wickets while bowling the tough overs and always kept Pakistan in the match. His three-wicket haul in the last game proves his worth to the team.&nbsp;



He will be expected to repeat his wonderful performances in his spell against Hong Kong in the upcoming do-or-die match for sure.



<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong: Winning Prediction</h2>



Match prediction - Pakistan to win the match



Considering the rhythm of all the players and the overall performance of the team in the recent past, Pakistan are the most possible side to emerge victorious in tomorrow's match. With a most probable victory over Hong Kong, they shall be heading into the Super 4 stage along with India.&nbsp;

<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong, Asia Cup 2022 Match Preview:</h2>



Pakistan will move ahead as the hot favourite to win the contest against Hong Kong, despite failing to secure a single T20I victory in 2022. A victory would take the team to the Super Fours, where India, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka have already reached.



Both, Pakistan and Hong Kong were outplayed by India in their respective opening match of the Asia Cup 2022. While Pakistan was hammered by 5 wickets, India went over the line against Hong Kong by 40 runs.



Owing to the stature of Pakistan cricket and their quality, they will have the upper hand against Hong Kong.



<h2>Pakistan vs Hong Kong Head to Head:</h2>



So far, both of them haven?t met in a T20I fixture. The Asia Cup 2022 will be their maiden meeting in the T20Is. Meanwhile, in three ODIs held between Pakistan and Hong Kong, the former outclassed the latter in all three games.

PAK vs HK: A comprehensive win for Pakistan to start their Asian Games 2023 campaign against Hong Kong in the 2nd quarterfinal. Pakistan struggled initially but tail-end batting and then the evergreen top-notch bowling unit set the game up for them. This post read the Scores of Pakistan Batters in The PAK vs HK 2nd Quarterfinal Match in Asian Games 2023 Men's Cricket.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#pak-vs-hk-scorecard">PAK vs HK: Scorecard</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#pakistan-160-10">Pakistan- 160/10</a></li><li class=""><a href="#hong-kong-92-10">Hong Kong- 92/10</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



Hong Kong won the flip of the coin and decided to bat first. They were quite successful in their plans when they pushed Pakistan under deep pressure. Mirza Baig went back duck and Yousuf, Nazir, Haider Ali, and skipper Qasim Akram didn't convert those small starts. Pakistan were 73 for 6 down in 12 overs at one stage.



Asif Ali, Arafat Minhas, and Aamer Jamal, down the order, took charge and put forth a competitive total of 160 runs. These three batters contributed 91 runs in 52 balls.



But it was a different story when Pakistan had the ball in their hands. They didn't even allow any batter to open their shots. Only Babar Hayat was a batsman for Hong Kong to score over 20. Leaving his contribution behind, the entire batting of Hong Kong scored less than 60 runs.



Four ducks and just three sixes, that is the summary of Hong Kong innings. Khushdil Shah took 3 wickets, Minhas, Muqeem, and Akram shared 2 wickets each and Pakistan bowled out Hong Kong under 92 runs.



Pakistan won the match by 68 runs and confirmed their berth in the semifinals of the Asian Games 2023 Men's Cricket.



Down below are the Scores of Pakistan Batters in The PAK vs HK 2nd Quarterfinal Match in the Asian Games 2023 Men's Cricket:

The wait for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be over. The tournament will begin on 19th February, and the final will take place on 9th March. The India team, no doubt, will be one of the hot favourites to win the tournament, which will be played in a hybrid model. 
India will be playing all their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 games in Dubai. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be beginning their campaign against Bangladesh on 20th February, and, after that, will be playing Pakistan on 23rd February, followed by New Zealand on 2nd March. 
The departure date of India for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 also has been revealed. As per the reports in Times of India, it is learned that the Rohit Sharma-led side will be travelling to Dubai on 15th February. The reports added that more clarity on the same will come in the coming days. 
<h2>India won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
Not only this, it is learned that India also won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because all the teams will be in Pakistan, and hence, it will be difficult for the International Cricket Council (ICC) to arrange the warmup match. 
The reports added that India team management is happy with the net session ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because they will be playing the three-match ODI series against England, which will begin on 6th February across three venues in India. 
Apart from this, it is reported that the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 won't be having a captain photoshoot because of the different challenges along with the different arrivals of the team. This means that Rohit Sharma won't be travelling to Pakistan for this and will be staying in Dubai with the team. 
The opening ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be held in Lahore. There were talks of having the event in Karachi but the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to host it in Lahore.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: India to travel to Dubai on this date; unlikely to play warmup game

India batter Shubman Gill has started his preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The premier batter has returned to nets for the white-ball practice as he was named in the Indian team for the ODI series against England and the ICC tournament. 
Shubman Gill has been under a lot of pressure for his poor outings with the bat, especially in Test cricket. With the emergence of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who delivered consistent performances, there were a lot of questions about the place of Gill, even in the ODIs. 
Several fans and experts also have backed Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with Rohit Sharma. However, amid all this Shubman Gill is making sure that he gives his best to train for the tournament. 
With England ODIs and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner, Shubman Gill was seen batting in the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. He was seen batting with the white-ball ahead of the tournament and the video can be seen at the end of the article. 
Shubman Gill looked in golden touch with the bat as he played a pull towards the four before blocking the balls. The batter would be eager to make a strong comeback and reply to all the criticism in style with his performances in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
Shubman Gill recently played the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 for Punjab. The batter was the lone warrior for his team as he hit a magnificent century and returned to form after having a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, where he played just three games. 
Shubman Gill would want to carry on his form and help a team win. He has been one of the best batters for India in ODIs. He also has been named as the vice-captain of the team for the tournament and with added responsibility under his belt, a lot will be reliant on him.

Pakistan batter Babar Azam has been in the news for the last few days, especially with the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner. The batter's name has been discussed a lot related to making him open, especially with no clarity over Saim Ayub. 
Pakistan is the only team that has yet to announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Since the last few days, he has been in the news as there have been a lot of reports that have suggested that there are chances that he might open the innings for the team. 
However, the fresh reports in Cricket Pakistan have revealed that there are no plans to make Babar Azam open the innings. The reports added that the selection committee has not given the green signal to the development as they feel that batter will be best suited in the middle order. 
<h2>Selectors want a proper opener in the role; Babar Azam to at in middle-order</h2>
The reports claimed that selectors want a proper opener in the role. One of the openers that has been finalized by the management is Fakhar Zaman. However, with Saim Ayub likely to miss out, it is learned that Imam-ul-Haq is also in contention to take the role. 
Babar Azam has been the best batter for Pakistan in ODIs. The batter has mustered truckloads of runs for the team in the format while batting at No.3 and he will be extremely crucial for his team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will be played in Pakistan with India games to be played in India. 
Babar Azam also has been a decent opener as well. He has been opening for the team in T20Is and has achieved massive success as well. He also opened in Test cricket during the recent South Africa series and aced that challenge as well, slamming two half-centuries in two innings. 
But, in white-ball cricket, Babar Azam has been criticised a lot for opening in T20Is. This is because he has failed to maximise the powerplay and has been batting with a low strike rate. It remains to be seen where he will be batting for the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Babar Azam's batting position decided; selectors not in favour of giving him this role

India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series. 
India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead. 
India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team. 
In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series. 
<h2>Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</h2>
However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters. 
"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night" 
Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team. 
The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match. 
India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.
