Live Cricket Score Oman vs Afghanistan, ICC World T20 2016, Oman vs AFG Warm-up T20 Match at Mohali

Good day! Hello and welcome to CricketCountry‘s live coverage of the ICC World T20 2016 warm up match between Afghanistan and Oman to be played at Mohali. These games will give the teams a good measure of the conditions before they enter the qualifiers of the tournament. Afghanistan will go into this match as favourites, but ruling out Oman will be fallacy. Both teams have won their previous games in the warm up stages. Oman upstaged Scotland by 14 runs, while Afghanistan triumphed over Netherlands by 16 runs. Both teams will have confidence and momentum going into the game.

For Afghanistan their main strength lies in the bowling department. The attack featuring established names like Hamid Hassan, Dawlat Zadran and Mohammad Nabi looks very formidable. Oman’s batsmen will have to bring their A game to try and overcome the challenge these bowlers will pose them.

Zeeshan Maqsood scored a sedate 58 off 42 balls against Scotland, which set the tone for Oman in the game. They will hope for him to come good again. Khawar Ali and Adnan Ilyas also showed great promise. In the bowling, the pick of the bowlers in that game for Oman was Ajay Lalcheta. In four overs he conceded just 26 runs while also picking three wickets.

The worry for Afghanistan is that none of their batsmen scored a fifty in the game against Netherlands, with Samiullah Shenwari top-scoring with 42. They will want their top-order to contribute with bigger scores.
