The Asia Cup 2022 encounter between India and Hong Kong on Wednesday will be a memorable one for many reasons. Starting from Suryakumar Yadav<\/a>‘s powerful knock of 62 runs off 28 balls to Virat Kohli<\/a>‘s unbeaten 44-ball 59, Indian players displayed some strong performances as they defeated Hong Kong by 40 runs to secure their Super 4 spot. Apart from all this, another thing which won many hearts and left the cricket fans entertained was the sight of Kohli bowling after a hiatus of six years. The star Indian batter took the ball in the 17th over, where he conceded only six runs but went wicketless.<\/p>\n

Coming to the match, a brilliant 28-ball 62* from Suryakumar Yadav and an unbeaten 44-ball 59 powered India to a total of 192\/2 after Hong Kong put them in to bat.<\/p>\n

After a slow start, India looked set for a sub-par total, but Suryakumar upped the ante at the death to help India finish with a flourish. He hit six fours and six sixes – four of which came in the final over.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong showed intent with the bat in the Powerplay, but once India’s spinners came on, they faded away.<\/p>\n

Promoted<\/span><\/p>\n

Babar Hayat top-scored for them with a 35-ball 41, while Kinchit Shah made 30 off 28. Hong Kong eventually finished with 152\/5.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong still have slim hopes of making it to the Super-4 stage of the Asia Cup but they need to beat Pakistan in the final Group A encounter to make that happen.<\/p>\n
