Asia Cup 2018, India Vs Hong Kong: The buzz about India’s recent performances has gone around its preparation for the big series. The BCCI had agreed to play back-to-back games, there was a lot to do with the fact that they were more likely to play a cooperative nation. But the match against Hong Kong was considered more of a practice to the Indians. A match that was meant to get an idea about the conditions of the pitch became a bitter lesson for the Indians. This 26-run win of India in the Asia Cup 2018 wasn’t an appropriate win or an ideal practice for Rohit Sharma’s team. Basically, it was a reality check just before the crucial clash against Pakistan. This extension in the workout may affect the players for the match on Wednesday.
