I guess it should be under ICC's regulations. Otherwise the ground wouldn't even qualify as an international venue. The matches would have been classified as "other" matches.

According to Cricinfo, playing area is 150m long and 120m wide. I think, that roughly means the straight boundaries are around 70m and square are 55m.

So I think, the straight boundaries are ok, but the square boundaries are really pushing it, like 55m should be the minimum for a boundary, so especially if one square boundary is shorter than the other it might've been too small.

Another reason I think that is because I saw Dipendra Singh Airee's innings, he cut a full ball over point for six.

sounds like WPL boundaries

ICC significantly relaxed their regulations when granting global T20I status, so I'm not sure. Maybe @Aislabie would know

Minimum boundary size is 59.4m.

Yeah they've relaxed a few things. Like pitches. A lot of countries play T20Is on mats.

But there's a minimum boundary size that every ground has to meet. 59.4m as said by wasteyouryouth

 

[pillowprocter]

Ok then, so either the ground is wider than Cricinfo say, or they place the boundary rope right on the edge

Yeah could be, but let's not disrespect the Mongolian side
They are representing their country nonetheless.

Yes... Netherlands also representing there country against Karnataka...

Hong Kong has gotten Pakistan in some trouble at Hangzhou -24/3 right now!

Interestingly, one of Pakistan's 6 debutants is also making his T20 debut

Arafat Minhas! That's interesting!

Also interesting is that the captain is making his T20i debut. Perhaps, happening for the 1st ever in Pakistan's history(bar the 1st ever T20i they played)?

I believe so. I remember Keshav Maharaj also captained on T20I debut

54/5 now. This is HKG's 1st choice XI. They bat well too!

Can Pakistan put up a good total here?

I believe so. I remember Keshav Maharaj also captained on T20I debut

Yes, and so did George Bailey. Usually unheard of, especially in the subcontinent.

Do these games count as T20Is?
