ICC Men's CWC League 2: Oman vs Namibia - Preview, Predicted Playing XIs, Weather Forecast, Pitch Report, Match Prediction and Live Streaming Details

Oman will take on Namibia in the ICC CWC League 2, at the Imperial Wanderers Cricket Stadium on Friday, November 26.

After a rather disappointing finish to their ICC T20 World Cup Campaign, Oman will be looking to produce some good performances on this tour. Jatinder Singh and Aqib Ilyas have been phenomenal with the bat in hand for Oman in recent times. Meanwhile Zeeshan Maqsood has been consistent with both bat and ball.

The batters, in general, will need to apply themselves and respect the conditions by choosing their shots wisely on what could initially be a challenging surface.

Meanwhile, the impressive seam bowling duo of Kaleemullah and Bilal Khan will be looking to exploit the South African conditions to their benefit. At the same time, the spinners will be required to keep the run-rate in check, while pacers wreck havoc upfront.

The Namibian side, on the other hand, did their own expectations no harm in the recently concluded ICC T20 World Cup. Ruben Trumpelmann was one of the finds of the tournament for Namibia, as he was superb with the new ball in hand.

Oman are the better side on paper, but Namibia are extremely confident and that makes the latter hard to beat. Oman need to be switched on in the field and avoid misfields at all costs. Meanwhile, the Namibian batters will need to score at a brisk rate and protect their wickets while doing so.
