India registers an easy 40-run win thanks to brilliant fifties from Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli. Hong Kong on their part did well to go past 150 with the bat.

For India, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Arshdeep Singh and Ravindra Jadeja picked a wicket each while Nizakat Khan, the Hong Kong skipper was run out.
