Asia Cup Rising Stars: India 'A' skipper Jitseh Sharma and rival captain Irfan Khan of Pakistan feel a total of '160' would be par score at the Asia Cup Rising Stars that starts on Friday. Though they accepted that the T20 game is unpredictable, the two captains admitted that the game is in favour of batsmen, and the batters will have a field day in this event too.

On Friday, India 'A' will take on the UAE in the second match of the day at West End Stadium in Asia Town, while Pakistan will open their campaign in the eight-team T20 tournament for emerging players in Asia with a match against Oman on the same day.

Defending champions Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong, and Bangladesh complete the roster at the eight-team tournament being staged in Doha for the first time by Qatar Cricket Association (QCA).
