In Abu Dhabi on September 11, Bangladesh played Hong Kong in Group B's third match at the Men's T20 Asia Cup 2025. Pursuing 144 on a track providing bounce and movement, Hong Kong mounted to a fighting 143 for 7 after a plucky powerplay with disappointments. With Hong Kong 71 for 3 in the 11th over, Zeeshan Ali tried to hook Tanzim Hasan Sakib's attractive length on 11.3 but misjudged the shot. Mustafizur Rahman dashed in from the mid-wicket position, jumped, and, with safe hands over his shoulder, snaffled the ball for a thrilling catch that left Hong Kong at 71 for 4. Zeeshan had scored 30 off 34 balls at a strike rate of 88.23 when he skied the edge, and Mustafizur's catch gave Tanner his second wicket of the spell. That stifled Hong Kong's charge, with two set batsmen, Zeeshan and Nizakat Khan, at the crease. Bangladesh's death-over approach then piled relentless pressure, limiting runs in the last five overs (42 for 4), as Mustafizur and Rishad Hossain kept scoring under control.

His alliance with Yasim Murtaza, who hit 28 off 19 balls, raised hopes of a fighting total after Anshuman Rath (4) and Babar Hayat (14) were taken out early. Extras were costly for Bangladesh, as three leg byes, two no-balls, and nine wides boosted Hong Kong's score by 14 runs. The visitors completed the 100-run mark in 14.5 overs but lost steam during the death overs, declining from 117 for 4 at 17.1 overs to 143/7 at the conclusion of their 20 overs. Kalhan Challu and Ehsan Khan chipped in with eager late runs, helping Hong Kong mount a respectable 143. Bangladesh now need a mandatory run rate of 7.15 to win. With Mustafizur's fielding wizardry having laid down the foundation, the home side will turn to their batting depth and spin power on a turning Abu Dhabi track to chase 144 and continue their undefeated start to Group B.
