Associates take a drubbing on opening day of U19 Asia Cup in Bangladesh

Hong Kong, Nepal and UAE U19 team’s had a disappointing start to their respective campaigns on the opening day of 2018 ACC U19 Asia Cup at various venues in Bangladesh. While Hong Kong and Nepal went down without much of a fight against Pakistan U19 and India U19 respectively, UAE rallied for some time before going down against Afghanistan U19.

Not much of a break will be in favour for either Hong Kong or UAE, as both dive right back into action on the 2nd consecutive day of the tournament as they take on Sri Lanka and India respectively and another loss could very well end their chances of qualifying into the finals of the U19 Asia Cup.

Both Hong Kong U19 and UAE U19 were left undone in their batting department and it will take a lot more than what they displayed on the opening day to pose any challenge to their opponents on the 2nd day of the competition.
