India take on Oman in Match 12 of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Friday, September 19.

Suryakumar Yadav’s men have already sealed their place in the Super 4s and will view this clash as valuable batting practice ahead of their highly anticipated rematch against Pakistan.

Oman, on the other hand, are out of contention after heavy defeats to Pakistan and the UAE, but Jatinder Singh’s side will aim to end their campaign on a positive note. Here’s a look at the prediction, expected lineups, betting tips, best odds, and live scorecard for the India vs Oman encounter.

Head-to-head record: India vs. Oman in T20Is

This will be the first-ever T20I meeting between India and Oman. Both teams have never faced each other in the shortest format, making this Asia Cup 2025 clash in Abu Dhabi a historic contest.

Top players to watch: Batters & Bowlers

Batters to watch

Abhishek Sharma (IND): The young opener has been in blazing form, smashing 31 off just 13 balls against Pakistan. His fearless stroke play in the powerplay can set the platform for India’s middle order.

Jatinder Singh (OMA): The captain leads from the front with 450+ T20I runs at an average of 28.5. His ability to anchor the innings while keeping the scoreboard ticking makes him Oman’s batting backbone.

Bowlers to watch

Kuldeep Yadav (IND): The left-arm wrist-spinner continues to be India’s trump card, taking 3/18 at an economy of just 4.5. His variations in the middle overs make him a constant wicket-taking threat.

Shakeel Ahmed (OMA): With 45 wickets at an economy of 7.4, the experienced all-rounder provides control and breakthroughs. His lower-order runs add further value in crunch moments.
