Full commentary
Afghanistan's match from the moment Hamza Hotak came on, on a turning track he was too much for the Hong Kong top order and Hong Kong were made to look ordinary even though they haven't been that at all this tournament up to today. Afghanistan are through to the ACC Twenty20 Cup Final for the fourth consecutive time, they've won the previous three, where they await the winner of the semi-final between Nepal and UAE. That starts in just over an hour's time and we'll be back for that one. Thanks for being with us to now.

(Afghanistan) Karim: "I don't think Afghans are playing it as a T20, look at their strike rates." One doesn't think, having bowled out Hong Kong for 109, they need to win it in 10 overs
