Experimental India Get Ready To Steamroll Hong Kong In Asia Cup

KL Rahul couldn't have wished for an easier opposition to get his rhythm back as a buoyant India get ready to steamroll minnows Hong Kong in their second and final group league game of the Asia Cup on Wednesday.

Asia Cup: Experimental India get ready to steamroll Hong Kong

Hong Kong in their second and final group league game of the Asia Cup here on Wednesday. The Group A match won't be more than a glorified net session for Rohit Sharma's men against a team, mostly comprising Pakistani and Indian expats, who otherwise are not good enough to play first-class cricket in either of the two nations.

In T20Is, teams are going for impact performance and often a 20 ball 45 is of greater value than a 90 not out of 65 balls.
