Match Details

Teams: Oman vs Papua New Guinea

Venue: Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1), Al Amerat, Oman

Date: Sunday 17th October, 2021

Time: 3.30 pm IST

Preview

Oman have a point to prove, as they will look to qualify into the second round for the first time. They had participated in the 2016 T20 World Cup as well, but failed to make it past the first round.

With all their qualifying matches at home, we can expect them to be serious contenders to advance to the next round this time!

While Papua New Guinea are first-timers along with Namibia. However, they should be looking to put up more than a fight in all their fixtures, even upsetting a team or two!

Oman

Jatinder Singh, Aqib Ilyas, Kashyap Prajapati, Mohammad Nadeem, Zeeshan Maqsood (c), Suraj Kumar (wk), Sandeep Goud, Naseem Khushi, Kaleemullah, Fayyaz Butt, Bilal Khan.

Papua New Guinea

Tony Ura, Assad Vala (c), Charles Amini, Kiplin Doriga (wk), Sese Bau, Norman Vanua, Jason Kila, Simon Atai, Nosaina Pokana, Chad Soper, Damien Ravu.
