Saif Hassan to score under 19.5 runs

BAN vs HKG Team Previews
Bangladesh
Litton Das steers the top order as a key figure against the new ball, gloves behind the wickets and the captaincy. He ended with a half-century against the Netherlands in a series where he scored 145 runs across three innings. Das pairs with compact right-hander Saif Hassan.
Towhid Hridoy provides the glue behind the opening partnership. With over 900 T20I runs, Hridoy is well established in this Bangladesh team. The power comes later in the order with Shamim Hossain and Jaker Ali supplying the six-hitting impulse. In a short period of time, Jaker Ali has raced to over 200 T20I runs this year.
Nurul Hasan adds insurance as another wicket-keeping option and someone else who can step up with the bat under pressure. Pace-bowling allrounder Mohammad Saifuddin links spells between left-arm seamer Shoriful Islam and lively new-ball operator Tanzim Hasan Sakib. Saifuddin sits only four wickets away from 50 T20I wickets.
Leg-spinner Rishad Hossainās breakout haul of 14 wickets at the 2024 Menās T20 World Cup means Litton Das has a serious attacking option. Nasum Ahmedās accurate left-arm orthodox spin offers control. The spinner is fresh off a player-of-the-match three for 21 in the second T20I against Netherlands.
Bangladesh Expected Playing 11
Saif Hassan, Litton Das (c/wk), Towhid Hridoy, Shamim Hossain, Jaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Shoriful Islam, Rishad Hossain, Nasum Ahmed, Tanzim Hasan Sakib

Hong Kong
The batting lineup leans heavily on the experience of Babar Hayat and Nizakat Khan. Hayat, despite making 39 runs in his previous innings, has major strike rate issues. At this level, both have struggled to deliver against the bigger boys.
Zeeshan Ali and Anshy Rath are capable of stabilizing innings, but the lack of recent form raises serious concerns. Newer faces like Kalhan Challu may find the step up in intensity overwhelming.
In the middle, Kinchit Shah and captain Yasim Murtazaās strike rotation and ability to accelerate remain questionable against the better bowling attacks like Bangladesh. Without significant contributions from these players, Hong Kong could quickly find themselves bogged down with not many runs posted.
A total of four batters scored either a duck or only one run in the game against Afghanistan. Added to that, only two batters reached double digits, and no batter recorded a strike rate of 100 or more.
The bowling attack is led by Aizaz Khan and veteran spinner Ehsan Khan. The unit lacks any real wicket-taking threat, making run containment almost impossible. Young seamer Ayush Shukla and Ateeq Iqbal bring energy, but inexperience could see them exposed quickly.
Shukla has quickly been put under pressure after conceding 54 runs in his four overs of his last match. He was one of three bowlers to concede economy rates of ten runs or more per over in the match.
Hong Kong Expected Playing 11
Zeeshan Ali (wk), Anshy Rath, Babar Hayat, Nizakat Khan, Kalhan Challu, Kinchit Shah, Yasim Murtaza (c), Aizaz Khan, Ehsan Khan, Ayush Shukla, Ateeq Iqbal
BAN vs HKG Toss Prediction
The previous two wins for Bangladesh have come from batting second. Under the lights of Abu Dhabi, chasing could be the route for success.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The players may be invited to a slower surface in Abu Dhabi. Bangladeshās previous score at the ground of 84 all out proves that conditions be trickier for batting early on. In night matches, dew frequently favours the chasing side with bowlers struggling to grip the ball and the ball coming onto the bat better off the surface.
One of the guarantees of this game is that there will be no rain, with a zero percent chance. There will be a slight gust of wind, but the biggest factor of the day will be the extremely hot temperatures of nearly 40 degrees Celsius.
BAN vs HKG: Who Will Win?
Hong Kongās most recent T20I was a ten-wicket slaughter at the hands of Malaysia. That result doesnāt bode well for the team, knowing that theyāll be up against much better outfits than Malaysia in the Asia Cup. Bangladesh should breeze through against Hong Kong.
Bet on Bangladesh to win.
BAN vs HKG win percentage stands at 92% in favor of BAN.
