Match Preview
Bangladesh will kick off their Asia Cup campaign against Hong Kong and will be eager to build on their fine run in T20 cricket. The Tigers have looked sharp in their preparations and come into the tournament on the back of series wins over the Netherlands, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. A major trophy has always eluded them in this format, but under the captaincy of Litton Das the side looks settled and balanced, making them genuine contenders for a historic run this time.
For Hong Kong the road ahead looks tricky. They were handed a 94-run defeat by Afghanistan in their last outing and now face a Bangladesh side brimming with confidence. Players like Babar Hayat and Yasim Murtaza have shown flashes of promise, but if Hong Kong are to put up any sort of resistance it will require a collective team effort rather than individual brilliance.
History provides a small spark for them as well. Back in 2014 Hong Kong stunned Bangladesh in their only T20 meeting. Litton and his men will be well aware of that upset and will know better than to take their opponents lightly this time around.
