After losing to India in their opening match of the tournament, Pakistan are in a tight spot to qualify for the Super 4 of the Asia Cup 2022. The Men in Green will challenge Hong Kong in the penultimate match of the group stage as the winner of the competition will qualify for the next round.

It Is not unknown that Hong Kong is not as strong as Pakistan. However, the Nizakat Khan-led side played good cricket in the tournament so far and Pakistan would not want to take them lightly. 

However, former India international, Vijay Dahiya believes that there is no competition among both the teams and Pakistan are favourites to win the clash. He also said that the tournament will only take a thrilling turn if Babar Azam and company joins India, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka in the next round.

“Everyone wants that (India versus Pakistan match). It’s not that I don’t consider Hong Kong as a team. However, from the tournament’s point of view, I think everyone wants Pakistan to be there and the kind of team Pakistan has, I don’t think there will be immense competition against Hong Kong. Also, the tournament will take a thrilling turn when Pakistan qualifies for Super 4," he said while speaking on BatBricks7 presents' Run Ki Runneeti' on CricTracker.
