Pakistan thrashes Hong Kong by 155 runs in the last group match of ACC T20 Asia Cup 2022 on Friday evening in Sharjah.
With the latest victory, Pakistan has also registered their biggest ever win in T20I!
Pakistan’s bowling attack, led by spinners Shadab Khan and Mohammad Nawaz, took full advantage of the sticky pitch and skittled out Hong Kong for a record low of 38 on Friday.
The pair bagged seven wickets, Shadab Khan 4, and the left-arm spinner took three.
In a must-win Twenty20 international, Pakistan scored 193-2.
The evening saw Rizwan (78 not out) and Fakhar Zaman (53) putting on 116 after being invited to bat first on a slow and low Sharjah pitch.
Hong Kong was bowled out in 10.4 overs, making it Hong Kong’s lowest T20 international total after their 69 against Nepal in 2014 and also their lowest against Pakistan, who had bowled out West Indies for 60 in 2018.
