India are taking on Oman in match number 12 of Asia Cup 2025 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. This will be the last match in Group A of the T20 tournament. The game is of little consequence with regard to Super 4 qualification as the line-up has already been confirmed. The Men in Blue have progressed to the next round, while Oman have been eliminated after two losses.
While the game is a dead rubber, India would be keen to continue their dominance in the Asia Cup. They began their campaign with a sublime nine-wicket victory over UAE and followed it up with a seven-wicket triumph over Pakistan. Heading into the Super 4 round, they would look for another complete performance.
Left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav has been brilliant for Team India so far, with seven wickets in two matches, bagging the Player of the Match in both games. Abhishek Sharma has also impressed at the top of the order, with two blazing cameos. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav scored some handy runs against Pakistan. India would now be keen for the middle and lower order to get some game time.

Today's IND vs OMA pitch report
“It’s a good pitch, similar to yesterday. There’s a nice sprinkle of grass, but underneath it's dry. Not much spin but you can attack in powerplay. Abu Dhabi produces some good limited-overs pitches.” - Ravi Shastri and Waqar Younis
