The first encounter between India and Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2022 was one for the ages, with Rohit Sharma's team prevailing in the final over after a tense 39 overs in Dubai on Sunday.

Hardik Pandya was the star for India with bat and ball as he took the team in blue home with a six off spinner Mohammad Nawaz, chasing Pakistan's score of 147.

Young Pakistan quick Naseem Shah emerged as the hero for Babar Azam's team as he rattled India at the top and bowled a brave 18th over despite cramping up.

India then went on to defeat Hong Kong to qualify for the Super 4 stage. Suryakumar Yadav smashed 68 from just 26 balls in an otherwise lacklustre show from India as their opponents made 152-5 in their allotted overs to lose by 40 runs.

Pakistan, on the other hand, stormed into next stage by crushing Hong Kong by 155 runs in Sharjah on Friday.

Mohammad Rizwan returned to form with an unbeaten 78 against the Associate nation, with spinners Shadab Khan (4-8) and Nawaz (3-5) dismissing Hong Kong for a record low 38.

That set up another enthralling contest between India and Pakistan in the Super 4 stage.

Real estate tokenisation project

Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.

The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.

Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

Changing visa rules

For decades the UAE has granted two and three year visas to foreign workers, tied to their current employer. Now that's changing.

Last year, the UAE cabinet also approved providing 10-year visas to foreigners with investments in the UAE of at least Dh10 million, if non-real estate assets account for at least 60 per cent of the total. Investors can bring their spouses and children into the country.

It also approved five-year residency to owners of UAE real estate worth at least 5 million dirhams.

The government also said that leading academics, medical doctors, scientists, engineers and star students would be eligible for similar long-term visas, without the need for financial investments in the country.

The first batch - 20 finalists for the Mohammed bin Rashid Medal for Scientific Distinction.- were awarded in January and more are expected to follow.
