Today Cricket Match Prediction, Pakistan vs Hong Kong, Asia Cup 2022, 6th Match. Who Will Win, On September 02, 2022

The 6th Match of Asia Cup T20 2022 is scheduled to play between Pakistan and Hong Kong on Friday, 2nd September 2022 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah

The first match of Pakistan was very interesting against their traditional rivals, India which they lost by the margin of five wickets. Pakistan had faced some issues with their key bowlers like Shaheen Afridi and Mohammad Wasim Jr and we saw the impact. Many of us were taking Hong Kong as a weak side but the way how they performed against India was just amazing even though they lost the match but they showed the power of batting and bowling. Remember that the loser of this match will be out from Asia Cup 2022 and the winner will move to the super four.

The batting order of Pakistan almost collapsed in the first match against India. The big names of Pakistan’s batting like Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, and Shahab Khan were totally under pressure against India. They could manage to score just 147 runs in 20 overs. Mohammad Rizwan was the highest run-scorer from their side who scored 43 runs on 42 balls with the help of four boundaries and one huge six. Iftikhar Ahmed scored 28 runs while Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan, and the skipper, Babar Azam could manage to score just ten runs each. Haris Rauf scored 13 runs while S Dahani smashed the inning of 16 runs on just six balls with the help of two boundaries.

The way how the bowling unit of Pakistan performed in the first match was just outstanding even though they could not defend the target of 148 runs and leaked this target in 19.4 overs. Naseem Shah, Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan, and Shahnawaz Dahani kept the strong batting order of India under pressure. Mohammad Nawaz was the highest wicket-taker from their side who picked three wickets in 3.4 overs and bowled out against 33 runs. Naseem Shah was the other bowler who was just good with the ball. He picked two wickets in four overs. He was facing a knee injury during his bowling spells but he completed his four overs. Remember that he was playing this first T20 International of his career.

Hong Kong was good in their opening match against India till the 10th over but after that, they leaked a lot of runs. They were charged for 192 runs in their 20 overs inning. Mohammad Ghazanfar was the most successful bowler who picked one wicket in two overs and bowled out against 19 runs. Ayush Shukla also picked one wicket but he leaked plenty of runs. He was charged for 53 runs in three overs. Haroon Arshad, Haroon Arshad, Aizaz Khan, and Yasim Murtaza were the bowlers who could not manage to pick any wicket.

The performance of the batting order of Hong Kong was good but they could not chase the target of 193 runs and scored 152 runs in 20 overs. Babar Hayat was the most successful batter from their side who scored 41 runs on 35 balls with the help of three boundaries and two huge sixes. Kinchit Shah also performed well with the bat and scored 31 runs. Zeeshan Ali remained not out after scoring 26 runs while Scott McKechnie had 16 runs to his name.

The toss is going to play an important role in the decision of all matches of Asia Cup T20. Having a good total on the board is always a big advantage in these kinds of big matches. According to our toss prediction, the team who will win the toss may choose to bat first.

The 6th Match of Asia Cup T20 2022 is going to be held at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. This pitch is offering a flat batting surface with a huge amount of pace and bounce. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 170 to 180 is going to be tough to chase.

The weather forecast in Sharjah will be hot and will also test the players physically. It is predicting some clouds around on match day but the weather forecast does not predict rain. We should be able to have a full uninterrupted match.
