Pitch Report
A fresh track is expected with loads of runs and some movement on offer. Although the pacers should get some extra bounce as well, the batters should enjoy the ball skidding onto the bat. There isn't much turn available for the spinners, who will need to vary their lines and lengths accordingly. Wickets in hand will be the key, with both sides likely to prefer batting first upon winning the toss.-

Kiplin Doriga: Kiplin Doriga has been in fairly decent form in recent weeks, having been used as a floater by PNG. However, he is likely to bat in the top order today, making him a good option ahead of Naseem Khushi.
Batter
Jatinder Singh: Oman opener Jatinder Singh has blown hot and cold in recent weeks, but his knack for scoring quick runs is well known among the Associate Nations circuit. One can bank on the opener to deliver at the top of the order, making him a handy pick in your OMN vs PNG Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Charles Amini: PNG's hopes of a win will rely heavily on Charles Amini's all-round prowess.

He is sure to be a popular pick in most OMN vs PNG Dream11 fantasy teams.
