Naeem Shah is back in the nets after 2 day’s rest
The 19-year-old picked up an injury during the India-Pakistan clash on Sunday. He produced a fiery spell in the game by picking up 2 wickets and conceded only 27 runs. Naseem removed opener KL Rahul and dangerous Suryakumar Yadav in his spell. The right-arm pacer showed great courage by bowling with his body on the line as he was cramping throughout the game. For the first instance, it looked like Naseem have a serious injury and won’t be able to continue the tournament.

Asia Cup 2022: Pakistan is set to make 2 changes in their Playing XI ahead of the must-win game against Hong Kong
Pakistan’s team cannot afford to lose against Hong Kong at any cost. The Hong Kong team has the capability of beating Pakistan and they showed it against the Indian bowling lineup. They were able to score 150 runs against India and at one point were in the chase.
Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf might be rested by Pakistan to make them fresh for the Super 4. Hasan Ali and Mohammad Hasnain are likely to replace the two pace bowlers in the XI. With the amount of blowing quality Pakistan have on thier bench, it won’t be a tough job for them to defeat Hong Kong without Naseem and Rauf.
