MATCH: Oman vs Scotland
DATE: Jun 09, 2024
TIME: 22:30 IST / 17:00 GMT
VENUE: Sir Vivian Richards Stadium – Antigua, Antigua And Barbuda
TOURNAMENT: T20 World Cup 2024
Oman’s performance in the marquee event has been below par so far, as they are coming off a two-match losing streak. In their opening game against Namibia, they were part of a thrilling Super Over contest, which they eventually lost. In their last fixture against the mighty Australians, the Aqib Ilyas-led side fell 39 runs short of the target and in due course suffered their second defeat. The upcoming game is a do-or-die situation for them to still be in contention for the Super Eight.
On the other hand, Richie Berrington‘s Scotland are coming off an emphatic win over Namibia in their second game. After their first game got washed out against England, the Scottish side came back strong and registered a five-wicket victory.
Pitch Report and Conditions
The pitch of the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium offers an even contest between batters and bowlers. However, it tends to favour the batters, particularly in this form. As the game progresses, the pitch also provides support to spin bowlers. The outfield is well-maintained and typically fast, facilitating quick scoring opportunities for batsmen and allowing for exciting fielding displays. This surface will host its first match of the marquee event. The team that wins the toss will opt to field first.

Probable Best Performers
Probable Best Batter:
Scottish skipper Richie Berrington could be the best batter in the upcoming game against Oman. The right-hand batter in the previous game against Namibia scored an unbeaten 47 off 35 to make sure that his side emerged victorious in their opening fixture. His performance in the next game will be crucial if Scotland wants to carry on their winning momentum.
Probable Best Bowler:
The right-arm Scotland speedster Brad Wheal could be the best bowler in the upcoming game against Oman. In the game against Namibia, Wheal picked up three crucial wickets to restrict the opposition from scoring a huge total. He would want to emulate a similar performance against Oman and strike early with the new ball.
