Korogi Sports Park, Nisshin
Pakistan begin their Asian Games Cricket 2026 campaign against Hong Kong in the 1st Quarter-Final on 28 September. The knockout match starts at 9:00 AM in Japan, 00:00 GMT and 5:00 AM in Pakistan.
Hong Kong reached the last eight after recovering from an opening defeat to Malaysia with a 41-run win over Oman. That result showed the value of their experienced middle order and disciplined bowling attack.
Pakistan arrive with a powerful T20 squad led by Sahibzada Farhan. With no second chance in the knockout stage, both sides must settle quickly and manage the pressure of a place in the semi-finals.

Pakistan vs Hong Kong Quarter-Final Preview
Pakistan have the deeper batting order on paper, with Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub, Usman Khan and Hasan Nawaz offering several ways to attack the powerplay. Their bowling group also includes pace from Mohammad Wasim Jr and spin from Abrar Ahmed and Sufyan Moqim.
Hong Kong earned their quarter-final place by responding strongly after losing to Malaysia. Yasim Murtaza, Anshuman Rath, Babar Hayat and Ehsan Khan give them experience in conditions where control through the middle overs can decide a T20 match.
Pakistan will be expected to set the tempo, but knockout cricket leaves little room for a slow start. Hong Kong’s best route is to keep the contest tight, take early wickets and force Pakistan to rebuild under pressure.
