The pitch at the Al Amerat stadium offers the batsmen quite a few opportunities to score runs. Both the matches in this series have seen individual scores of 58 or more. Seeing the form of some of the batsmen, we can expect a similar trend in this match as well.
While both teams scored exactly the same number of boundaries in the first match, the Netherlands scored 15 in the last match compared to 9 for Oman. As the Netherlands has a stronger batting unit with more depth, we are backing them to score more boundaries.
With the 3-match series on knife's edge, Oman will take on the Netherlands in a virtual final. They will face off at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground.
The two teams have faced each other in 6 matches to date. Oman won 2 while the Netherlands won 3. One match ended without any result.
This match will not be telecast or streamed in India.
Oman gained an early lead in the series by defeating the Netherlands in the first T20I. However, they put up a tepid performance on Thursday to squander away that lead.
Jatinder Singh and Aamir Ali will once again open the batting for Oman in this game. The duo hasn’t been consistent enough and the team will want them to get a good start here. The middle order consists of Ashish Odedra, Hammad Mirza, and Waseem Ali.
Mirza showed good form in the previous match as he scored a half-century and his partnership with Sufyan Mehmood had helped the hosts claim victory in the first game. The squad also has some talented all-rounders in the form of Jay Odedra, Sandeep Goud, and Muzahir Raza.
However, they haven’t had much of an impact with the bat so far. Raza has bowled well though, picking up 4 wickets. He will be joined by Mehran Khan and Sufyan in the pace department. Shakeel Ahmed is likely to lead the spin attack here.
The Netherlands made a strong comeback in the previous game and put up a clinical performance to level the series. They will now look to continue with the momentum and win the series, as it also has an impact on the team’s standing in the WCL 2 table, where they are currently placed 3rd.
Scott Edwards led his team from the front in the previous match and scored 99 runs. His contribution with the bat was one of the key factors in helping the Netherlands win. Max ODowd and Teja Nidamanuru make up for a strong opening pair.
O'Dowd is a particularly aggressive batsman and if he gets going, the Netherlands can score plenty of runs in the Powerplay. Noah Croes will join Edwards in the middle order while all-rounders Bas de Leede, Colin Ackermann, and Timm van der Gugten will add depth to the batting.
Vivian Kingma and Kyle Klein are likely to open the attack with the new ball here. The duo remained wicket-less last time around but we expect them to bounce back. Roelof van der Merwe has been the pick of the bowlers and has picked up 4 wickets while being very economical as well.
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
The pitch at the Al Amerat stadium is balanced and provides equal opportunities to the bowlers and the batsmen. The average first-inning score here is around 150 but the team batting first will look to score at least 179 runs to give the bowlers a better chance at defending the target.
There might be some swing when the ball is new but as it gets older, things get better for the batsmen. The spinners can expect some help as well, provided they pitch the ball in the right areas.
The weather is likely to remain bright and sunny with temperatures of over 25 degrees.
With the series on the line, we are expecting both teams to put their best foot forward. While there is no clear favorite to win this game, we feel that the Netherlands has an edge here thanks to a stronger batting unit and some world-class all-rounders.
Bet on the Netherlands to win.
