LIVE | UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score and Updates, Asia Cup 2025 Match 7: Oman Won The Toss Elected To Bowl First
UAE vs Oman Asia Cup 2025 Match 7 Highlights: United Arab Emirates won their Group A meeting with Oman in Asia Cup by a vital margin of 42 runs in Abu Dhabi to keep their Super Four hopes alive. UAE made 172/5 in 20 overs with half-centuries by captain Muhammad Waseem (69) and Alishan Sharafu (51) before Junaid Siddique picked up four wickets to bowl out Oman by 130. The outcome will ensure that India has secured a place in the Super Four and will ensure that it is a winner-takes-all battle between Pakistan and UAE in order to secure the last qualification.
Muhammad Waseem was reminiscing about the victory and remarked, “The past is the past and we wanted to show this caliber to everyone with the way we can play. Very happy with today, we prepared ourselves for three days and executed well as a batting and bowling unit. We wanted to attack in the powerplay and then bat deep.” He also invited the 3,000 career runs as a great moment of his life, his family, and the country.
Jatinder Singh of Oman admitted that UAE had better execution, but said, “Credit goes to the UAE batters, they had their plans and executed well. We started on target but lost too many wickets in crunch situations. The team is picking up but we lack a bit of experience.” Reflecting on his dismissal, he said, “The track was placid and the ball was coming on nicely. I played as per plans, but it was a slower one and I was a bit too early on the shot.”
Teams:
Oman (Playing XI): Aamir Kaleem, Jatinder Singh(c), Hammad Mirza, Vinayak Shukla(w), Wasim Ali, Hassnain Shah, Shah Faisal, Aryan Bisht, Shakeel Ahmed, Samay Shrivastava, Jiten Ramanandi
United Arab Emirates (Playing XI): Alishan Sharafu, Muhammad Waseem(c), Muhammad Zohaib, Rahul Chopra(w), Asif Khan, Harshit Kaushik, Dhruv Parashar, Haider Ali, Muhammad Rohid Khan, Muhammad Jawadullah, Junaid Siddique
UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score: Oman started never to get off in their run chase and lost four wickets during the powerplay. There was some resistance in a transient sixth-wicket partnership. Junaid Siddique took four wickets, Jawadullah and Haider Ali took two apiece. In the previous game, Sharafu and Waseem had 88-run partnership that led UAE to 172 a figure that was too high to be beaten by Oman and that India had entered the next round.
UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score: Samay Shrivastava’s innings comes to a frustrating end as Muhammad Waseem’s sharp fielding leads to a direct hit. Shrivastava, having scored 6 off 8 balls with a boundary, is well short of the crease as the stumps are uprooted, sealing a comprehensive win for UAE in their opening match.
UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score: Vinayak Shukla wrongly judges a short of length ball by Junaid Siddique and gives a mere reception to Jawadullah in short fine leg. Shukla hits 20 out of 17 balls with 2 boundaries, but his dismissal provides Oman with a vital wicket at the critical point of the innings.
UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score: Jiten Ramanandi departs cheaply after being crunched by a well-angled delivery from Jawadullah. The ball follows him down leg, forcing a mistimed shot, and Alishan Sharafu takes a comfortable catch. Ramanandi scores 13 off 9 balls, giving Oman an early breakthrough.
UAE vs Oman Live Cricket Score: Another setback to Oman as Aryan Bisht bowled by Jawadullah. Attempting an inside-out shot on extra cover, Bisht tries to mishit the line and loses his stumps. The guile of the off-spinner on length and angle deceives him, and terminates a 24-run effort just before it would have been a third wicket to Oman.
