Kuwait, Malaysia heading to Hong Kong for one-day series

Hong Kong, China, March 4, 2023: Cricket Hong Kong and APC Group have announced that the APC Group One-Day Series will be held from March 15-20, immediately following the APC Group T2OI Series.

The one-day series will be played between Hong Kong, Kuwait and Malaysia and will be the perfect start for Hong Kong in the build-up for the Asia Cup 2023 Qualifiers.

Established in Hong Kong in 1987, APC Group specialises in the pharmaceuticals, chemicals, nutrients and safety/regulatory services sector. 

Anuraag Bhatnagar, Cricket Hong Kong board member and Director of Marketing, said: “Now that Hong Kong is fully open again, in line with the HKSAR government’s initiatives to bring back visitors and business, we at CHK have planned an extensive calendar of exciting cricket events. 

“These events would not be possible without the support of Hong Kong corporates as well as various government agencies.  We are delighted that the APC Group has stepped up to support our first two international series at home.  

“These series have been scheduled in the build-up to a very important year for Hong Kong with Asia Cup qualification, the Asian Games and other ODI series.”

Hong Kong captain Nizakat Khan added: “These one-day games will be crucial as we switch gear from T20s to one-day before heading out to Nepal. We are excited to do well against quality opposition and take the positive momentum into our busy calendar in the year ahead.”
