Yasim Murtaza hasn’t yet led Hong Kong in ODIs, as the team doesn’t have the ODI status.
Murtaza’s T20I captaincy stint started on a poor note. But the all-rounder has since then made significant progress.
Hong Kong made it to the finals of the two multi-nation T20I tournaments. While they lost both finals, it showed Murtaza’s ascent as the leader.
Thus far, Murtaza has led Hong Kong in 16 T20Is. And he has guided them to nine victories, including a Super Over win against Bahrain.
