The T20 match of the Asian Games Men’s Cricket Competition was reduced to 10 overs a side due to rain. Zhong Hui conceded 9 runs in two overs and picked up four wickets in return.

Hui was introduced in the eight over of the match when South Korea was sitting pretty at 65 for one. He picked his first wicket on the last ball of his first over when he dismissed Sunghoon Cho for 23.

He came back to bowl his second over and started the carnage. His first victim was Daesik Sung who was stumped in an attempt to hit big. The new batsman, Hyobum An was the next casualty as he tried the same thing and was dismissed on a duck. Hui, had now picked a hat-trick. But the wickets didn’t stop. Sangwook Lee was dismissed next  as he lofted a catch straight back to the bowler.
