Our view
Oman had a solid start to their innings, with Jatinder Singh scoring 88 off 107 balls and building a valuable 91-run partnership with Aryan Bisht. However, the team struggled to maintain momentum in the final overs. After reaching 178/6, Oman lost their last four wickets for just 16 runs and were bowled out for 194. Awais Ali Shah was the standout bowler for UAE, finishing with an impressive five-wicket haul that prevented Oman from setting a bigger target.
UAE's chase was not entirely straightforward either. Aryansh Sharma scored 49 off 61 balls, while Rahul Chopra contributed 33, but regular wickets kept the pressure on the batting side. Muhammad Waseem then provided a crucial boost with 43 off 35 balls, helping UAE move closer to the target. Even after Waseem's dismissal, UAE held their nerve and completed the chase at 199/6 in 47.3 overs. The result highlighted how important Awais Ali Shah's bowling spell and UAE's composure in the closing stages were in securing a four-wicket win.
