The minnows lose steam after openers Nizakat and Rath put on 174; Dhawan, Rayudu and Khaleel dazzle for the victor
India may have won the match but rank outsider Hong Kong won the hearts in the Asia Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday night.
Chasing a stiff target of 286, Hong Kong openers Nizakat Khan and captain Anshuman Rath gave Rohit Sharma’s men a real scare with an opening partnership of 174, the highest ever for the Associate nation in ODIs, eclipsing the stand of 170 the pair had put on for the fourth wicket versus Scotland in 2016.
It was incredible to see the duo bat sensibly and tackle India’s bowling lineup, sans Jasprit Bumrah who was rested after the heavy workload in England. That the partnership came 48 hours after Hong Kong was bundled out for 116 versus Pakistan made it even more special.
