India seal Super Four spot

Wow, Avesh was ripped to shreds right at the end as he ends up conceding 53 in his 4 overs. But India wouldn't mind that as they seal a 40-run win. They were always on the frontfoot post the powerplay and they have managed to close it out in their favour. It's been a top performance led by SKY's pyrotechnics at the death.

Bhuvi opens his account

Bhuvi comes back for his final spell and fetches a wicket. KD Shah falls for 30 off 28 balls as he miscues a loft. Hong Kong are five down.

This chase is done

India are introducing Kohli into the attack in the 17th over and that tells you all you need to know. This chase fizzled out a while ago. Just a mere formality now.

Redemption for Avesh

He has been carted tonight but he finally fetches a wicket to redeem himself. Avesh bowls on a good length straight at the stumps and the batsman misses an ugly swipe to lose him stumps.

Jadeja strikes

The key man Hayat is gone. He has done the bulk of the scoring up until now and he realises the need to do more damage if Hong Kong are to stay alive in the contest. He takes on Jadeja but mistimes the hoick completely to get caught by the fielder at short third man.

Update - Hong Kong 65/2 after 10 overs

India have pulled things back after the powerplay. Hong Kong have scored only 14 runs in the four overs after the PP and that's just not enough. They will have to press on the accelerator with the required rate mounting.

Eventful powerplay

This could have well been Hong Kong's powerplay despite the early wicket as Babar Hayat went after the Indian attack. But the final ball of the powerplay yields a wicket as a result of a run out and that could peg Hong Kong back. They post 51/2 after 6 overs.

Arshdeep strikes early

Yasim Murtaza hits two fours off Arshdeep but a short ball from the left-arm seamer brings about the opener's downfall as he top-edges a pull to fine-leg where Avesh Khan holds on to a tumbling catch. Hong Kong are 12/1 after 2 overs.
