Oman Preview

Oman enter this game after defeating Samoa by five wickets in their first game of this qualifiers window. They currently sit top of their group with two points but they need to do well in this game to maintain that spot in their aspiration to advance to the next round. It is good to see how they quickly came out of their mess at the 2025 Asia Cup where they suffered Pakistan, United Arab Emirates, and India in the group stage and were doubt out without a single point. They now continue to search for their first win since recording a 3-wicket win over Netherlands in November 2024. They however lost the series 2-1. They have now lost their last six T20I games and have won only two of their previous 15 games.
