Toss Winner - Hong Kong won the toss and choose to bat first
Bahrain beat Hong Kong by 8 wickets
Bayuemas Oval has seen plenty of low-scoring games in this tri-series and we reckon a score of around 150 will be a challenging one to chase in the final.
- Both teams will aim for 40-50 runs during the powerplay. Scoring below this mark might create problems later, as batting becomes tougher when the wicket loses pace in the middle section of the innings.
- Asif Ali and Ali Dawood are our picks for Bahrain’s players to watch out for in the final.
- Hong Kong will be relying on their in-form batters Zeeshan Ali and Anshuman Rath to get some big scores.
We are backing Bahrain as the winners of the Malaysia Tri-Nation T20I Series final.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Bahrain Preview
Bahrain have been the standout team in the Malaysia Tri-Nation T20I Series, winning three of their four games and finishing at the top of the table. Their only setback came in a Super Over loss to Hong Kong, but their overall performance makes them the favorites in the finals.
Asif Ali has been Bahrain’s most consistent batter, scoring 131 runs in four innings at a strike rate of 160. He has notched up two half-centuries, including an explosive 76 off 40 balls against Hong Kong earlier. That will give him the confidence to do well against them in the final.
Sohail Ahmed has provided steady support with 93 runs at a strike rate of 107, while Fiaz Ahmed has chipped in with 77 runs at a strike rate of 86.
Ali Dawood has led the bowling attack, taking seven wickets while keeping things tight with an economy rate of 5.61. Imran Anwar and Rizwan Butt have also been in good form, combining for 14 wickets. With this attack adjusting well to the playing conditions, opposition batters will have their work cut out.
Bahrain Predicted Playing XI:
Fiaz Ahmed, Prashant Kurup (wk), Asif Ali, Sohail Ahmed, Junaid Aziz, Ahmer Bin Nasir (c), Ali Dawood, Rizwan Butt, Imran Anwar, Abdul Majid Abbasi, Imran Khan

Hong Kong Preview
Hong Kong didn’t get off to the best start in their tri-series campaign, falling to Bahrain in their first match. But they quickly found their rhythm, stringing together three straight wins to seal a place in the final. Having already beaten Bahrain once, they’ll be backing themselves to do it again in the final.
Much will depend on their top-order batters, with Zeeshan Ali, Anshuman Rath, and Babar Hayat leading the charge. Zeeshan has been in excellent touch, scoring 164 runs in three games at an aggressive strike rate of 145. Anshuman showed his class with a brilliant 97 off 66 balls against Malaysia, proving he can turn a game on its head. Bahrain’s bowlers will have their hands full with these two in the final.
Further down the order, Shahid Wasif and Yasim Murtaza have shown they can step up when quick runs are needed.
On the bowling side, Anas Khan and Ayush Shukla have done a solid job, taking 13 wickets between them. Ehsan Khan has added to the attack with seven wickets in four matches, while Yasim Murtaza’s impressive 3-18 in the previous clash with Bahrain makes him a real threat in the middle overs.
Hong Kong Predicted Playing XI:
Zeeshan Ali (wk), Anshuman Rath, Nizakat Khan, Babar Hayat, Yasim Murtaza (c), Shahid Wasif, Nasrulla Rana, Anas Khan, Ehsan Khan, Ayush Shukla, Ateeq Iqbal

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Bayuemas Oval presents a slower wicket that initially helps batsmen connect well, thanks to its dry nature. As innings progress, the pitch slows down further, bringing both spinners and medium-pace bowlers into the game. Pace bowlers struggle to find traditional movement but can be effective by changing speeds and lengths during middle and final overs.
The weather in Kuala Lumpur looks cloudy, with afternoon showers being a real possibility, which could affect how the match unfolds.
BHR vs HKG Pitch Report
The highest score at Bayuemas Oval in the current tri-series belongs to Hong Kong, who posted 185-3 against Malaysia on their way to a 43-run triumph. However, teams typically score between 130-140 runs at this ground, which has seen an array of low-scoring encounters.
Toss: To Bat
Batting first has worked better at the Bayuemas Oval over the last few matches in the tri-series. Moreover, this is a final and batting first will be the safer option in such a crucial match.

Winning Prediction
The Malaysia Tri-Nation T20I Series final promises to be a thrilling showdown between Bahrain and Hong Kong. Bahrain entered the tournament as favorites and have lived up to them, dropping just one match on their way to the final. Hong Kong have impressed as well, defeating Bahrain once and overcoming the hosts twice to book their place in the final. Both sides have proven they can win under pressure, but Bahrain’s depth gives them a slight advantage, with the odds tilted in their favor at around 55-45.
