Captain Litton Das starred with a blistering 59 off 39 balls, leading Bangladesh to a seven-wicket victory over Hong Kong in the Asia Cup opener. After restricting Hong Kong to 143-7, with seamer Tanzim Hasan Sakib taking 2-21, Bangladesh chased down the target comfortably with 14 balls to spare in Abu Dhabi. Despite Hong Kong’s Nizakat Khan top-scoring with 42, the Tigers never lost control. Das’s aggressive innings, featuring six fours and a six, steadied the chase alongside Towhid Hridoy, who remained unbeaten on 35 to seal the win. Bangladesh’s strong start sets the tone for their Asia Cup campaign.
