What a performance we witnessed today from Sohan. His knock finished this match way before its scheduled time. That's it from our live coverage of this match. This is Mohammad Anab, signing off on behalf of my colleagues Arjun Bhalla, Sachin Yadav and Aman. Cheers.

Akbar Ali (Bangladesh A Captain): "Very good to have some points in the first game of the tournament. We have all watched what he did, and at some point, we were talking that this might be the fastest ton by a Bangladeshi player. Hats off to him. Once we got a good start, we decided to finish it early, keeping in mind the net run rate."
Yasim Murtaza (Hong Kong Captain): "We thought the score was enough, but credit goes to Bangladesh A batters. This surface was too good to bat on. It was a belter to bat on. We will look to make a comeback tomorrow (day after tomorrow vs SL-A)."
Habibur Rahman Sohan (POTM): "Just played in line of the ball. Didn't do the overthinking. Just played one ball at a time and everything fell in place. I hope to continue my good form in this tournament."
