Ateeq Ul Rehman Iqbal: Hong Kong has announced a 20-member squad for a preparation camp in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) ahead of the Men’s T20 Asia Cup, starting on September 9. The camp will feature competitive matches and intensive training sessions aimed at fine-tuning strategies for the eight-team tournament.
The squad will depart for the UAE on August 24, and will also be the first major assignment for newly appointed head coach Kaushal Silva and captain Yasim Murtaza. "As we embark on our journey to the Asia Cup 2025, our final preparations will begin with this tour, where we will take 20 players. This wider squad will allow me to better assess each individual and provide players with the opportunity to hone their skills, build stronger bonds, and develop a winning mentality within the group.”
“This preparation tour will be crucial in helping the team acclimatise to the weather and pitch conditions. We are planning matches at different venues and will gain valuable experience through under-lights training, which I believe will be extremely beneficial for our players,” said Silva in a statement.
