All-rounder's evolution as a batter in focus as India hope star players Rohit, Virat and Rahul strike form against Hong Kong todayDUBAI: As the Indian players deboarded the team bus for an optional practice session here at the ICC Academy on Tuesday evening, the photographers trained their lenses on Virat Kohli. As it turned out, this is the second practice session Kohli had decided to skip on either side of the Pakistan match last Sunday. As everyone looked around for Kohli, it turned out regular captain Rohit Sharma too was missing. So was head coach Rahul Dravid.

He was dismissed for 11 off 9 balls after pacer Mujeeb Ur Rahman dislodged his stumps. In 100 matches now, Hasan has scored 2,018 runs at an average of 22.67. He has scored ten half-centuries in the shortest format, with 84 being his best score.

It was the 6th wicket that Bangladesh lost at a score of 89 runs. Mahmudullah was dismissed for 25 off 27 balls.
