India (188/8) defeat Oman (167/4) by 21 runs in Match 12 of Asia Cup 2025

[sweep_shot]

Oman - 141/1 (17 overs).

48 to win from 3 overs. RRR is 16.

 

[Justcrazy]

If it was 170 , Oman would have probably chased this down

 

[jnaveen1980]

Never seen such brutal session fixing in my life ...

Give some credit to Oman dude. They are playing otu of their skin against no.1 ranked side.

 

[saabir]

Can't believe these part time cricketers giving phainta to Indian bowlers . They are playing out of their skin..

 

[JaDed]

another 4, 44 from 17

 

[Rana]

Kaleem’s grandpa migrated from India. All good.

“Having emigrated from Pakistan, Aamir Kaleem has been in and out of Oman's ODI and T20I teams since 2012, and is one of their most experienced players”

 

[Devadwal]

Never seen such brutal session fixing in my life ...

During Indian innings first line was 210+. Too much money made by bookies today

 

[Local.Dada]

If it was 170 , Oman would have probably chased this down

India would have also upped the intensity earlier instead of timepass then.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

So far embarrassing for India...and yes Indian bowlers were trying their best

 

[OldWarHorse]

Whoever shared that h2h stat in t20i for India, Maafi maang lo bhai

 

[Local.Dada]

“Having emigrated from Pakistan, Aamir Kaleem has been in and out of Oman's ODI and T20I teams since 2012, and is one of their most experienced players”

No issues. Just like the Aussies 2 W’s

 

[Rana]

according to Local Dada

Pakistan would only manage 160 here against Oman….

Even though they hit 160 in Dubai against them which is a much more difficult track

 

[jnaveen1980]

So far embarrassing for India...and yes Indian bowlers were trying their best

Now other Asian teams have to meet the standard.

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Finally watching this new Indian t20i team facing some pressure.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Can someone plz open the Nagin Classico match thread which starts tomorrow

 

[Buffet]

Fantastic by Oman, Chase this target.

 

[sweep_shot]

Back to back boundaries.

40 to win from 16 balls.

 

[Rana]

Was a wide previous ball

 

[JaDed]

Such a good knock coming to an end..wd Kaleem

 

[jnaveen1980]

No nick. move on guys.

 

[sweep_shot]

according to Local Dada

Local.Dada is one of the weirdest guys I have met here. He literally defended Indian call center scammers just because they were Indians.

He is a special kind. LOL.

 

[Local.Dada]

Aaj badi party cancel. Oman probably will
lose .

Choti pizza party approved. India got “humiliated” by Oman and destroyed their confidence

 

[Hellion]

So far embarrassing for India...and yes Indian bowlers were trying their best

So next Sunday , PAK are favourites especially since we will be playing serial march loser Bumrah right ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Oman has batted well here. Good for them.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Even best spin attack can bowl crap on a given day. THey were bowling wides. about 10 wides.

no those 10 wides were actually 2 Boundaries from 2 wide balls

 

[Rana]

Acting like he scored 150

 

[Champ_Pal]

Harshit Rana is a pathetic bowler. How he makes it to the squad is beyond me. Absolutely brainless.

Gets a fluke wicket.

 

[sweep_shot]

Kaleem is out. Well played.

 

[Rana]

Local.Dada is one of the weirdest guys I have met here. He literally defended Indian call center scammers just because they were Indians.

Elite Besharam

 

[sweep_shot]

To be fair, it is a great innings for a side like Oman.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Aaj badi party cancel. Oman probably will
lose .

Choti pizza party approved. India got “humiliated” by Oman and destroyed their confidence

I actually like the outcome lol Now allt he other guys need to meet the standard of Kaleem, Mirza

 

[Champ_Pal]

Can't believe these part time cricketers giving phainta to Indian bowlers . They are playing out of their skin..

India did not take this game seriously until the last 15 minutes where they realized that Oman are in the game to win it.

 

[jnaveen1980]

no those 10 wides were actually 2 Boundaries from 2 wide balls

IN a do or die game you can make mistake doesn't matter how good you are. Pressure can get to you.

 

[BDfanforever]

I thought Ashwin wanted to bring in Ind A team in the competition.

 

[sweep_shot]

Oman - 149/2 (17.4 overs).

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Now other Asian teams have to meet the standard.

Yes, Oman has opened the door today.

 

[Rana]

Bigger actor than Mohammad Rizwan

 

[JaDed]

Acting like he scored 150

In a T20 that was a good score.

 

[Devadwal]

Soja ni jitenge

Acting like he scored 150

 

[jnaveen1980]

I thought Ashwin wanted to bring in Ind A team in the competition.

Yea. so? You think you will beat them? Gill doesn't even belogn to India A team as of now.

 

[JaDed]

Oman has the wickets needed for this win.. go all the way

 

[Champ_Pal]

I thought Ashwin wanted to bring in Ind A team in the competition.

India A team would have played better than this team today.

 

[sweep_shot]

40 to win from 2 overs.

Should be too much. They should try to get 20 at least.

 

[BDfanforever]

Yea. so? You think you will beat them? Gill doesn't even belogn to India A team as of now.

Idk but the way Oman is smashing the front line seamers what would happen to Kamboj, Deshpande, Khaleel?

 

[The Bald Eagle]

So next Sunday , PAK are favourites especially since we will be playing serial march loser Bumrah right ?

No, they are not..They failed to make a statement against UAE

 

[JaDed]

Good fifty for Mirza took on top bowlers

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

IN a do or die game you can make mistake doesn't matter how good you are. Pressure can get to you.

they actually bowled only 2 wides. But Ball was moving too much. It happens in game. It’s a fact.Abu Dhabi pitch that was used yesterday was fresh one with Grass on it. Ball was coming nicely onto bat and so did it today. Abu Dhabi has been by Far best t20 Pitch in UAE

 

[sweep_shot]

50 for Mirza. Well played.

Came from 30* balls.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Idk but the way Oman is smashing the front line seamers what would happen to Kamboj, Deshpande, Khaleel?

Smashing is not winning

 

[jnaveen1980]

Scorecard says 14 wides.

 

[JaDed]

I'm happy for Amir such knocks mean a lot and coming at this age in intl T20 against India will always be memorable for him, this is not acting but genuine memory he has made for him and his family.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Its wide. Not sure what they are looking for.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Oman batted well. Score was always too big for most teams anyways. But good to see some weakness in the India attack Oman showing how its done!

 

[jnaveen1980]

I would talk about it for the rest of my life

 

[BDfanforever]

There is gap between bat and ball but there is slight spike. According to @Devadwal should be out.

 

[JaDed]

Oman batted well. Score was always too big for most teams anyways. But good to see some weakness in the India attack Oman showing how its done!

What weakness did they show that Bangladesh and Pakistan can capitalize?

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Scorecard says 14 wides.

Even with 2-3 Wides SL would have chased it. They had 7 Balls left at the end

 

[sweep_shot]

35 to win from 8 balls.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pandya cunningly bowling into the pitch with slow bouncers.

 

[gazza619]

This DRS is such a waste of time sometimes and breaks the tempo of the game, specially when TV umpire and onfield umpires are dumb.

 

[Rana]

What a pointless match

Indian bowlers just worn down for nothing

 

[JaDed]

I would talk about it for the rest of my life

Yeah I would too, at 43 probably is remarkable.

 

[BDfanforever]

This dead rubber was actually quite entertaining from whatever I seen.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

What weakness did they show that Bangladesh and Pakistan can capitalize?

India is just playing on Low Intensity. but this can give other team confidence that ok if Oman can do it , they can too. Sometimes that makes difference.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Even with 2-3 Wides SL would have chased it. They had 7 Balls left at the end

That was just one part of it. Too many legside deliveries. Almost 75% of the runs Nissanka was scored through leg side

 

[Champ_Pal]

Rinku should've played today in place of SKY.

 

[JaDed]

India is just playing on Low Intensity. but this can give other team confidence that ok if Oman can do it , they can too. Sometimes that makes difference.

Playing INTL cricket that confidence should already be in players selected for national side considering everyone has seen Indian players play IPL..

 

[sweep_shot]

Mirza is out. Great innings.

Oman - 154/3 (18.5 overs).

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

That was just one part of it. Too many legside deliveries. Almost 75% of the runs Nissanka was scored through leg side

you mean Mendis? He is great player of Sweep Shot and Employed it well. When Pitch is better and you take on good bowlers , That can put them off their length.

 

[Champ_Pal]

India is just playing on Low Intensity. but this can give other team confidence that ok if Oman can do it , they can too. Sometimes that makes difference.

India not showing any passion. Players going through motions. Very poor attitude.

Its an international match and they need to learn to respect the opposition even if they are minnows. Never take anyone lightly.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Anyone remembers this ODI match? India vs Honkongon

https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/asia-cup-2018-1153237/hong-kong-vs-india-4th-match-group-a-1153246/full-scorecard

Honkong almost chased it. Everyone was talking about "India's chinks"

India won the final.

 

[JaDed]

Top knock and good overall performance from Oman, some good memories made, they restricted India below 200 and also came close.

 

[BDfanforever]

Oman won today on two things:
-Restricted IND from scoring 300 runs.
-Scored a mammoth 160 in reply.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

you mean Mendis? He is great player of Sweep Shot and Employed it well. When Pitch is better and you take on good bowlers , That can put them off their length.

Aussies post 99 WC was feared side. Lot of times they won because of fear factor

 

[Champ_Pal]

Arshdeep 100 wickets in T20's. Very underrated.

 

[jnaveen1980]

First Indian player to take 100 wickets in T20 international.

 

[Local.Dada]

Oman won today on two things:
-Restricted IND from scoring 300 runs.
-Scored a mammoth 160 in reply.

Reminds me of my college days. Kuch to reason chahiye pawry ke liye on a Friday congratulations!!!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Arshdeep 100 wickets in T20's. Very underrated.

He delivered when it mattered. in the Final

 

[Devadwal]

So fair to say Oman>>> Pakistan against India :ko

 

[Mas-LFC]

Can't believe these part time cricketers giving phainta to Indian bowlers . They are playing out of their skin..

If Oman can do it, Pakistan can. Rest of the 3 teams can.
