Scotland vs Oman Probable XIs
Scotland
A century from Richie Berrington (114* off 127 balls) helped them score 284 in their 50 overs against Papua New Guinea. He was well-supported by George Munsey (79* off 62 balls). Gavin Main starred with the ball as he picked up four wickets and helped his side defend the total successfully.
These players will be the most crucial in the match against Oman also. Calum MacLeod and Kyle Coetzer are also likely to play a big part.
Probable XI
Matthew Cross (wk), Kyle Coetzer (c), Calum MacLeod, Richie Berrington, George Munsey, Dylan Budge, Michael Leask, Mark Watt, Safyaan Sharif, Gavin Main, Hamza Tahir
Oman
In their last match, contributions from Jatinder Singh (74) and Shoaib Khan (86) helped them post 265 on the board against Namibia. Bilal Khan and Kaleemullah picked up two wickets apiece but the other bowlers failed to get any as they were unsuccessful in defending the total.
Still, their team has been quite good in the tournament so far and they are unlikely to make many changes.
Probable XI
Jatinder Singh, Kashyap Prajapati, Shoaib Khan, Zeeshan Maqsood (c), Khawar Ali, Wasim Ali, Sandeep Goud, Naseem Khushi (wk), Fayyaz Butt, Kaleemullah, Bilal Khan
Scotland vs Oman Match Prediction
Scotland were brilliant against Papua New Guinea as they completed a comprehensive victory to grab two points. Oman, on the other hand, have been very good in the World Cup Super League 2 (2019-23) and will be looking to retain their top spot by beating Scotland.
Scotland have a good balance to their side and expect them to come out on top on Sunday.
Prediction: Scotland to win this encounter
