Hong Kong secured a resounding nine-wicket victory over Cambodia in the fifth match of the Asian Games T20I, while in the sixth game, Singapore dominated Thailand by triumphing by a staggering 99-run margin. Both these encounters were hosted at Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou.

In the fifth game, after losing the toss, Cambodia batted first and was in a hurry to milk runs. Opener Ram Sharan and captain Luqman Butt were the only players to cross the double-digit scores. Unfortunately, in 18.2, they got bundled out for a mere 70 runs.

Medium pacer Nasrulla Rana bagged a four-wicket haul, while Mohammad Ghazanfar and Anas Khan scalped two wickets apiece for Hong Kong.

In response, Hong Kong opener Muhammad Khan was dismissed without scoring a run, but captain Nizakat Khan and Babar Hayat orchestrated a swift victory taking their side over the line in just 5.5 overs. Gulam Murtaza was the lone bowler to scalp a wicket for Cambodia.

Shifting our attention to the sixth match, Singapore showcased brilliant batting, putting up an impressive total of 152/8 in 20 overs, thanks to keeper-batter Suryawanshi's 53-run knock in the middle overs. He was well supported by other batters in putting up a good total on the board.

All-rounder Chanchai Pengkumta was impressive with the ball, bagging a four-wicket haul for Thailand.

However, in reply, Thailand's batters faltered badly to put runs on the board, losing wickets at regular intervals. Only two batters touched the double-digit scores, highlighting their batting struggles. In the end, they managed to post only 53 runs, losing the game by 99 runs.

Aahan Gopinath Achar was the wrecker-in-chief with four wickets. Anish Paraam and Anantha Krishna scalped two wickets each.
