OMA vs SCO Match 20 T20 WC 2024 - when and where to watch, venue, most likely playing XIs, full squad details, Pitch Report, Weather and more
Oman's performance in the marquee event has been below par so far, as they are coming off a two-match losing streak. In their opening game against Namibia, they were part of a thrilling Super Over contest, which they eventually lost. In their last fixture against the mighty Australians, the Aqib Ilyas-led side fell 39 runs short of the target and in due course suffered their second defeat. The upcoming game is a do-or-die situation for them to still be in contention for the Super Eight.
On the other hand, Richie Berrington's Scotland are coming off an emphatic win over Namibia in their second game. After their first game got washed out against England, the Scottish side came back strong and registered a five-wicket victory.
