IND vs OMA: Weather & Pitch Conditions

The weather in Abu Dhabi is predicted to be 36°C at the start, and will decrease to around 32°C in the evening. The pitch is perfect for both batting and bowling.  Recent matches showed spin bowlers making an impact. The early overs can offer some support for pace bowlers by movement and bounce, but once batters settle in, they can play uncontrollably.

 

IND vs OMA: Head-to-Head Record

Asia Cup 2025 is a debutant tournament for Oman. Therefore, India and Oman have not played any matches so far.

 

IND vs OMA: Probable Playing XI

India: Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (C), Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakaravarthy, Jasprit Bumrah/Arshdeep Singh.

IND vs OMA: Winning Prediction & Top Performers

Finally, the Asia Cup is coming to an end. In the last group stage match, India will play against Oman today. Based on the previous matches, India played well and won consecutively. They have more powerful batters and bowlers compared to Oman. Thus, India has a higher probability of winning. For India, the young openers Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, and captain Suryakumar Yadav can smash opponents’ bowlers. If Jasprit Bumrah plays today, he can take care of Oman’s batters along with spinner Kuldeep Yadav

Meanwhile, Oman hasn’t won against any team and has been eliminated from the tournament. It will be difficult to win against a strong team like India. For Oman, captain and expert batter, Jatinder Singh,  is expected to be a top performer. The experienced spin bowler, Aamir Kaleem, can be helpful in the middle overs.
