India is now ready to play Oman in the 12th match of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi, on Friday, September 19. Considering that the team of Suryakumar Yadav already reached the Super Four, this match is a warm-up before the highly anticipated game against Pakistan. In the case of Oman, who are already out of the race, it is a chance to prove themselves against one of the most successful teams in the world in cricket.
India – Favorites to Dominate
Team India has been in focus in this tournament. They have dominated Pakistan and UAE in their bowlers matches and their batters are now eager to have more time at the middle. Youngster Abhishek Sharma has impressed with fast runs, whereas Shubman Gill and Tilak Varma strive to play more innings to the knockouts.
The mid-order comprising of Hardik Pandya, Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube will seek to find some form through prolonged stay at the batting crease. It is also reported that India may keep Jasprit Bumrah to be rested to ensure that he is available to play bigger matches and thus the opportunity would be given to bowlers like Harshit Rana or Arshdeep Singh to display their talent.
Oman’s Challenge
Batting has been their weak point in the case of Oman. They were overpowered by only 67 in their challenge against Pakistan and 130 in a chase against UAE. Their highest scorer Hammad Mirza, and Aryan Bisht have not even reached 30 runs in the tournament.
It will be a challenge to counter the quality spins of India such as Kuldeep yadav and Varun Chakravarthy, not to mention the fact that the new-ball attack would pose a challenge to the weak top order of Oman.
Pitch & Conditions Sheikh Zayed Stadium.
The Abu Dhabi pitch has provided balance in general. The bowlers, in particular, the spinners, have the power to eke out a helping hand only through those batters who have the intention of helping. The mean score of the first Innings is approximately 135. Winning teams will have a higher chance of bowling first since it is a bit simpler to chase on lights.
Predictions – India vs Oman
Gold365 Match Insight: India comes in as favorable candidates due to their prowess in batting and ability to vary in bowling. India has some of the strongest bench strength even when rotating key players, which compares much better to the XI of Oman.
Opportunities of Oman: To compete, Oman will require early wickets and one or two batters to make a career-defining knock. In the absence of the same, India will sail along.
Gold365 Final Verdict
India is projected to be an easy victory and go into the Super Four calmly. In the case of Oman, this match is rather about experience and rising out of the tournament on a positive side.
