New Delhi: The Asia Cup 2022 season being played on United Arab Emirates (UAE) soil has now reached its Super-4 stage. India, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka have confirmed their place in the Super-4 stage. Whereas one team will be decided today (September 2). This fourth contender will be the winning team of the match between Pakistan and Hong Kong. Today there is a 'do or die' match between Pakistan and Hong Kong team. Whichever team wins, it will make it to the Super-4, while the losing team's journey will end here. Also, the team winning this match will have to face India in Super-4.
In such a situation, if the cricket fans want to see the high voltage action between India and Pakistan once again, then today the Pakistani team will have to register a victory. Earlier in this tournament, India and Pakistan played their first match against each other. Team India won the match by 5 wickets in this match. Now, if Pakistan makes it to the Super-4, then the second match between the two teams will be played on September 4.
Today, if Pakistan takes Hong Kong lightly, it may cost them dearly. Earlier, India had defeated Hong Kong by 40 runs. Then the Indian team had given a target of 193 runs. Chasing the target, Hong Kong reached 152 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. Also, the Hong Kong team did not lose a single match in the qualifier round. In such a situation, Pakistan will have to be careful, otherwise it may have to be a victim of reversal. Let us tell you that this time 6 teams are participating in the Asia Cup. These are divided into two groups. Hong Kong is in Group A along with India and Pakistan. Whereas Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan are in Group B. Afghanistan and Sri Lanka have made it to Super-4 from Group B. At the same time, India's place in Group A is confirmed.
