Bangladesh vs Hong Kong, China Betting Odds

Hong Kong to have a good opening partnership (Parimatch)

With the rule dictating that every batter needs to be retired out at 31, unless the team exhaust all their batters, this becomes an interesting scenario for the opening partnership. Especially for Hong Kong, who have two very good openers in the form of Anshuman Rath and Babar Hayat. Both are high-impact batters, who like to take the bowlers on right from the word go and hence, betting on them is a good idea.

Bangladesh vs Hong Kong, China Best Batters

Mosaddek Hossain to be Bangladesh’s best batter (Parimatch)

Mosaddek Hossain is going to be Bangladesh’s trump card in the Hong Kong Sixes, particularly because of his high-intent batting. He has scored at a strike rate of 156 in T20 powerplays, a kind of impact he’d want to bring in to the Six-Overs-a-side tournament. With the restriction of scoring only 31 runs, there can’t be a better opportunity to go wham-bam-thank you-ma’am right from the word go.

Babar Hayat to be Hong Kong’s best batter (Parimatch)

The face of Hong Kong cricket for nearly a decade, Babar Hayat’s explosive starts define his team’s tempo. Known for his quick wrists and fearless intent, the former Hong Kong skipper has a strike rate of over 190 in Sixes tournaments. Expect him to go big early.

Bangladesh vs Hong Kong, China Best Bowlers

Mohammad Saifuddin to be Bangladesh’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Only one bowler is allowed to bowl 2 overs for their team, and expect Mohammad Saifuddin to do the job for Bangladesh. Saifuddin’s control over slower balls and yorkers makes him a standout in the Sixes arena. His variations are tailor-made for six-ball overs where batters have no time to settle. Expect him to pick at least two key wickets.

Ehsan Khan to be Hong Kong’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Ehsan Khan’s flight and guile have troubled even seasoned batters in Sixes. His knack for taking crucial wickets while maintaining control could prove decisive in a condensed format where every delivery counts. As a matter of fact, Ehsan Khan has taken seven wickets in the last two seasons of Hong Kong Sixes.

Our Prediction

Bet on Bangladesh to win. Led by Akbar Ali, who famously captained Bangladesh to victory in the ICC U19 World Cup 2020, Bangladesh have a steady mix of talents to get the better of Hong Kong. The likes of Abu Hider Rony, Jishan Alam, Mohammad Saifuddin, and Mosaddek Hossain Saikat have a kind of raw mix to stand out. Hong Kong, despite playing in home conditions, will find it hard to match Bangladesh on a man-to-man basis.
