"Oman ranked 20th in world T20 rankings put up a spirited batting show and finished on 167-4 after top knocks from Aamir Kaleem, who made 64, and Hammad Mirza, who hit 51. The left-right batting pair of Kaleem and Mirza put on 93 runs for the second wicket and attempted to pull off the chase with some late boundaries that gave India a scare."
"Hardik Pandya broke the stand with a stunning outfield catch to dismiss Kaleem off Harshit Rana and then sent back Mirza with his pace bowling in the next over. Left-arm quick Arshdeep Singh snared the fourth wicket of the innings and his 100th in T20 internationals the first Indian bowler to reach the century mark. Earlier, wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson top-scored with 56, and his second-wicket partnership with explosive opener Abhishek Sharma, who made 38 off 14 balls, laid the platform for India's total."
India posted 188-8 after electing to bat first in Abu Dhabi, powered by Sanju Samson's 56 and a second-wicket platform with Abhishek Sharma's 38 off 14 balls. Oman, ranked 20th, responded with a spirited chase to 167-4, led by Aamir Kaleem's 64 and Hammad Mirza's 51, their 93-run second-wicket stand briefly threatening the chase. Hardik Pandya took a stunning outfield catch to dismiss Kaleem and then bowled Mirza, while Arshdeep Singh took the fourth wicket and reached 100 T20 international wickets, the first Indian to do so. India and Pakistan advanced to the Super Four; Sri Lanka and Bangladesh also progressed.
