ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier Match 6: Afghanistan vs Hong Kong - Date, time, venue, possible playing XI, tv listing, live streaming

Afghanistan will play Hong Kong in the 6th match of the 2016 ICC World Twenty20 qualification match at Nagpur.

New Delhi: One thing is for sure, the match-up between Afghanistan and Hong Kong will not be regarded as a clash between the equals, despite their common 'Associate' tag.

Reasons are plain simple. Afghanistan is the big boys among the minnows, and they sure know how to intimidate the smaller teams. And thanks to their impressive win over Scotland in their opening qualifier, Asghar Stanikzai-led team will start as the obvious favourites today.

But Hong Kong will try to play valiant cricket, trying to shake off the also-rans moniker. They lost to Test outfit Zimbabwe by 14 runs, and will hope to do well against the fellow strugglers.
