OMA vs WI Team Previews

Oman

Oman will be disappointed that after coming this far in the tournament, they have failed to make the cut to the main event. Nevertheless, there are plenty of positives to take from here, as not many backed them to reach this far.

Kashyap Prajapati and Jatinder Singh will once again open the batting for Oman here. Prajapati is in particularly good form, and will play a vital role here. Mohammad Nadeem, Aqib Ilyas, and Aayan Khan will feature in the middle order.

Aayan Khan is in red-hot form and is the top run-getter for Oman in this tournament. He slammed a century in his last outing and will hope to continue with his good run. Coming to the bowling, the seamers have done a good job in terms of taking wickets but have been expensive.

The duo has picked up 24 wickets between them and will be helped by Kaleemullah. The spin attack does seem a bit lacking as Oman will depend on the all-rounders to deliver the goods for them. 

 

Oman Playing 11

Kashyap Prajapati, Jatinder Singh, Aqib Ilyas, Shoaib Khan, Ayaan Khan, Mohammad Nadeem, Sandeep Goud, Suraj Kumar, Jay Odedra, Kaleemullah, Bilal Khan.


West Indies

West Indies still have two matches to go in the Super Sixes, including this one. But even if they win both, it will not help them book a ticket to India. This is the first occasion that the West Indies has failed to qualify for a limited-overs World Cup, and they have no one else to blame but themselves.

It is hard to imagine that a team containing some of the most explosive batsmen, including Shai Hope, Nicholas Pooran, and Jason Holder would fail to make it to the marquee event. But West Indies must now focus on picking up the pieces and rebuilding the confidence of the team.

Brandon King is expected to start the innings with Johnson Charles, but both of them have been disappointing, to say the least. Brandon King’s performance has been particularly lackluster and he will need to get some runs under his belt here. The middle order consists of Shamarh Brooks, Shai Hope, and Nicholas Pooran.

The latter two have shown good form and will once again try and help the team to put up a big total. All-rounders including Kyle Mayers, Jason Holder, and Romario Shepherd add depth to the batting.

West Indies has a lot of variety in its pace attack with bowlers like Alzarri Joseph, Kyle Mayers, Holder, and Romario Shepherd. The spin attack will consist of Akeal Hosein and Kevin Sinclair.
