Bangladesh are up against Hong Kong in Match 3 of the Asia Cup 2025 on Thursday (September 11). The Bangla Tigers take on Hong Kong in Abu Dhabi.
This will be the first match for Bangladesh in the continental tournament, whereas Hong Kong has already played the opener against Afghanistan.

Bangladesh, led by Litton Das, enter as favorites with three consecutive T20I series wins against Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and the Netherlands. Their balanced squad, featuring Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, and young stars like Tanzid Hasan, aims for a strong start. Hong Kong, after a 94-run loss to Afghanistan, rely on Babar Hayat and Nizakat Khan to challenge the Tigers. The Sheikh Zayed pitch favors batsmen but offers early help to pacers, with spinners likely to shine later. Clear weather ensures an uninterrupted game.
The Abu Dhabi pitch has often been a sporting one, as it was evident in the first match. The batters can expect the ball to come on to the bat, while the spinners may have some assistance as well. Winning the Toss, the teams may eye to batting first as dew is unliekly to be a factor.
In their only T20I meeting at the 2014 T20 World Cup, Hong Kong stunned Bangladesh with a two-wicket win. Despite this, Bangladesh’s current form makes them favorites to level the record.
