Preview by Ajay Pal Singh
With a spot in the Super Four already secured, India are likely to test their bench strength as they face Oman in their final Group A clash of the ongoing Asia Cup. The last league fixture will be played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Friday (September 19).
India currently top Group A, having registered comfortable wins over both the United Arab Emirates and Pakistan. The Men in Blue have fielded the same playing XI in their first two matches but may look to rest a few key players ahead of the Super Four stage.
On the other hand, Oman are out of Super Fours after losing both their opening games. They will be playing for pride and get exposure against the defending T20 World Cup champions when they take the field against India.
India brushed aside Pakistan in their last encounter that caught a lot of eyeballs for what happened after the Men in Blue secured an easy win in Dubai.
India were asked to bowl by their arch-rivals and Suryakumar Yadav's men were on the money from ball one.
Bowlers were clinical and clicked in unison to restrict Pakistan to 127/9 in 20 overs. Kuldeep Yadav weaved his magic and picked up three for 18 from his four overs. Jasprit Bumrah and Axar Patel bagged two each while Hardik Pandya and Varun Chakarvarthy picked up one apiece.
In response, Abhishek Sharma started the chase by taking down Shaheen Afridi in the first over. Shubman Gill struck two boundaries before he got a pearler from Saim Ayub.
Suryakumar Yadav carried his bat after walking in to bat at number 3 early in the chase. He remained unbeaten on 47. Abhishek made 31 off just 13 balls.
Tilak Varma scored a run-a-ball 31 and Shivam Dube was unbeaten on 10 off 7 to see the Men in Blue over the line with 25 balls to spare.
On the flip side, Oman lost to UAE in their last encounter. Bowling first, they conceded 172 for 5 in 20 overs. Jiten Ramanandi took two wickets while Hassnain Shah and Samay Shrivastava took one wicket each.
With the bat, Jatinder Singh (20), Aryan Bisht (24), and Vinayak Shukla (20) were the only notable contributors with the bat as Oman were bowled out for 130 in 18.4 overs.
