Pakistan becomes most successful team in Hong Kong Sixes history

Pakistan etched their name in the record books by becoming the most successful team in Hong Kong Sixes history after defeating Kuwait in the latest edition of the tournament, 24NewsHD TV reported on Sunday. 

Before this victory, Pakistan shared the record with England and South Africa, each holding five titles.

The win over Kuwait has now placed the men in green at the top with six championships to their name.

The first edition of the Hong Kong Sixes was held in 1992, where Pakistan triumphed over arch-rivals India in the final.

Over the years, the tournament has seen multiple champions, with Sri Lanka ranked fourth with two titles, followed by India and Australia, each with one title.

After a seven-year hiatus since the 2017 edition, when Pakistan lost the final to South Africa, the tournament made its comeback in 2024.

However, Pakistan once again fell just short, finishing runners-up as Sri Lanka clinched their second title.

With their 2025 triumph, Pakistan have reaffirmed their dominance in the fast-paced six-a-side format, continuing a legacy that began more than three decades ago.

Most Successful Teams in Hong Kong Sixes History:
