India secured another win in their Asia Cup 2025 campaign, triumphing over Oman by 21 runs in their final Group A match held in Abu Dhabi. This victory solidifies India’s unbeaten run through the group stage, propelling them confidently into the Super 4 round. After winning the toss, India chose to bat first, amassing a competitive total of 188/8 in their allotted 20 overs. Key to this score was Sanju Samson’s composed half-century, a score of 56 runs off 45 balls, which demonstrated a balance of caution and aggression. While the top order started slowly, India found momentum in the middle overs through strategic hitting and smart rotation of strike. Oman put up a commendable fight, with Aamir Kaleem (64 runs off 46 balls) and Hammad Mirza (51 runs off 33 balls) both scoring half-centuries, forging a strong 93-run second-wicket partnership that kept Oman in contention for a significant portion of the game. However, in the crucial final overs, India’s bowlers demonstrated composure and skill, ultimately securing the win. The match also marked a historic moment for Arshdeep Singh, who became the first Indian bowler to reach 100 T20I wickets. His final wicket sealed both the game and his milestone achievement.
