The match starts at 7:30 pm IST and the toss will take place half and hour before. Hello and welcome to the LIVE coverage of the Asia Cup encounter between Pakistan and Hong Kong at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. Pakistan pacers Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah had suffered cramps in the encounter against India. Pakistan, on the other hand, will also look to bat first and pile a big total if they win the toss. Last time when Hong Kong won the toss against India, they opted to field first. The Pakistan openers happily rotate the strike as five runs come off the over. However, after conceding a couple of singles in the first three balls, Rizwan gets into action and whacks him for a stylish four, square of the wicket. Fakhar and Rizwan have so far added 35 runs off 26 balls for the second wicket. Aizaz Khan is introduced in the attack and he starts with a eight run over. As expected the Pakistan batters are now targeting the boundaries. One wide even resulted in five extra runs as the ball passed through the wicketkeeper's legs for a four.

Chasing 194, they were bowled out for 38, the lowest total against a Full-Member team.

They stayed deep in the crease to even full balls from the quicks, and looked to stay leg side of the ball. In the 15th over, Fakhar found his timing, and when he did, he hit a six and a four off left-arm spinner Murtaza in a 13-run 16th over. Their batters failed to pick Shadab's wrong'uns, and he proceeded to have fun with them. He ended the innings with four successive sixes off Aizaz. They were happy to knock the ball around when the spinners were on. They then scored 129 in the last 10 overs and 77 in the last five to get to a well-above-par total, with some help from a [Khushdil Shah](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/khushdil-shah-716733)assault. Pakistan, though, were in a must-win situation against a side that didn't have much to lose. Fakhar looked to give the charge once in a while but the wily Yasim Murtaza kept him in check with slow pace and mastery over length. Early doors - as Babar Azam fell in the third over and Rizwan struggled for timing - it was apparent even 150 might be enough for an attack as good as Pakistan's, but you can never say if two batters go for it and have a good day. He kept attacking spin to break away from Fakhar and bring up his fifty off 42 balls. However, [Fakhar Zaman](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/fakhar-zaman-512191)and [Mohammad Rizwan](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/mohammad-rizwan-323389)read the conditions well, and steered Pakistan towards a safe total. Naseem Shah and Shahnawaz Dahani set the tone with their high-pace spells before
