Dubai: Hong Kong has won the toss and opted to field first against India in the 4th match of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022.

“We are going to bowl first. In Oman, we chased down well and that is what we are looking to do. The last time we played India, it was a godo game and we know we did some mistakes and want to make sure we capitalize on that. We have the same team we played against UAE,” said Nizakat Khan after winning the toss.

“We were going to bowl first as well. Looks like an even covering of grass and we need to bat well to get to a good score. We just want to continue to do what we are doing as a team. We don’t want to look at the opposition and play good and hard cricket. We need to do our basics right, which is what got us a victory against Pakistan. One change: Hardik is rested considering how important he is for us, Pant comes in,” said Rohit Sharma after losing the toss.

India: Rohit Sharma(c), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, Dinesh Karthik(w), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh
