England are set to face Oman in a crucial Match 28 of the T20 World Cup 2024. The encounter will take place at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua. If Buttler will lead the defending champions, while Aqib Ilyas will captain Oman.
England still has a chance to qualify for the Super 8s. To keep their hopes alive, they must win this game against Oman and their subsequent match. Additionally, they will need favourable results from other games in their group to ensure a turnaround in their standing. On the other hand, Oman have already been eliminated from the competition after losing their first three games. Despite their exit, Oman will be looking to salvage some pride and possibly disrupt England’s path to the next stage.
The pitch at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is celebrated for its balanced nature, offering opportunities for both batters and bowlers to excel. Fans can expect a competitive clash between bat and ball on this surface. Generally, the team winning the toss might choose to bowl first, aiming to capitalize on early conditions and later chase down the target with confidence.
