India just managed to reach 285/7 in 50 overs against HK. This is not a good score considering it is HK atleast they should have made 325+ runs if they have to beat the best of the teams. Also HK is 139/0 and India team has not even manage to pick up a single wicket in 30 overs till now.
285/7 is a par score against Associate nations, but you would expect these scores to be easily defended. The first wicket partnership really scared India, but once India got the Hong Kong openers out, HK was under pressure. Even though this is a second string Indian side, I expected them to thrash HK. That didn't happen, with India winning by only 26 runs.
A very close match indeed. At one point, it seemed like India would lose this one.
Tomorrow's match between India and Pakistan will be a very interesting one. India should let Khaleel Ahmed play one more match tomorrow, it won't be a wise decision to get him out of the team against a very solid team.
