Expert Advice:

The all-rounders’ category is packed with the likes of Kinchit Shah, Nizakat Khan, Delray Rawlins, Aizaz Khan and Dion Stovell. The first four names are popular ones while Stovell has good numbers for Bermuda. Since only four players can be picked from this category, one of Rawlins and Nizakat can be excluded to pick Stovell. Rawlins doesn’t have great List A record while Nizakat isn’t a trustable option with the ball.

Hong Kong is expected to defeat Bermuda in this match.
