KARACHI, PTI: India launch their campaign in the Asia Cup cricket tournament against minnows Hong Kong here on Wednesday hoping to get into top form ahead of their crucial tie against archrival Pakistan on Thursday.Mahendra Singh Dhoni's men should not face much resistance from Hong Kong, but the Indians are in no mood to take their opponents lightly in what is likely to be a one-sided floodlit contest at the National Stadium.The Indians will go into the game without the services of paceman Irfan Pathan who will be rested because of a side strain.But the Indians have enough bowling resources at their disposal to counter Hong Kong. The India
coach Gary Kirsten warned his players not to get too complacent against their unfancied rivals."I am looking for some big contributions from my players in the match.We will take every opposition seriously as this is the Asia Cup and we will play 
proper cricket and will do the things we need to do," Kirsten said.
