Okay, guys! That is it from the India vs Oman live blog. We hope you liked our coverage for the game. India play Pakistan next in their Super Four clash on Sunday. We will also be covering other matches of the Super Four stage that starts late today (Saturday). So, stay connected to NDTV Sports. Goodbye!

Jiten Ramanandi smashes Arshdeep Singh for a four on the final ball of the match. India have won the game by 21 runs. They complete a hat-trick of wins in the ongoing Asia Cup. The Suryakumar Yadav-led side continues to remain unbeaten in the tournament.

Arshdeep Singh has dismissed Vinayak Shukla to reach a huge milestone. He has become the first-ever India bowler to claim 100 T20I wickets. On the list of Indians with most wickets in the format, Yuzvendra Chahal and Hardik Pandya follow him with 96 scalps each to their credit. Jasprit Bumrah is next with 92 wickets. Arshdeep has also become the quickest pacer to reach the mark of 100 T20I wickets.

Hardik Pandya gets a wicket and Oman are three down now. They put up a good fight but maybe their attack came too late. Oman need 35 runs in 7 balls. 

The 93-run partnership for the second wicket has been broken. Harshit Rana provides India the crucial breakthrough but the credit for the wicket goes to Hardik Pandya as he has taken a brilliant boundary line catch. He ran to his right from fine leg and took the catch while also making sure he remains behind the ropes. 

Aamir Kaleem c Hardik Pandya b Harshit Rana 64(46)

OMAN 149/2 (17.4)

Aamir Kaleem has smashed Harshit Rana for two consecutive fours. He went across and flicked the ball through backward square leg for first boundary, while the second one was slappped over the mid-off fielder. Oman need 40 runs in 16 balls.

Arshdeep Singh was smashed for two fours in this over. Hammad Mirza hit the first one through the third man region, while Aamir Kaleem scored the second boundary of the over through deep square leg. Oman need 48 runs in 18 balls. They are still alive in this chase.

OMAN 141/1 (17)

Oman are putting up a fight here! Is is too late for them now? Well, forget this and pay attention to what Hammad Mirza did. The right-handed batter smashed India's top wicket-taker in the ongoing Asia Cup, Kuldeep Yadav, for two consecutive sixes. It turned out to be an expensive over as 15 came off it.

OMAN 131/1 (16)

Aamir Kaleem raced to his fifty on the fifth ball of the over. He got there in 38 balls. This is a big moment for the batter as his half-century has come up against a quality bowling attack like India's. Shivam Dube leaked 16 runs in the over.

A fuller ball from Shivam Dube on the second delivery, slightly outside off-stump and Aamir Kaleem smashed it through extra cover for a four. It was a lofted shot and comfortably cleared the in-field. Dube bowled another fuller delivery a ball later and Kaleem smashed it for a biggie over cow corner.

Hardik Pandya bowled a short ball and Aamir Kaleem got a top edge while trying to pull it on the leg side. The ball went over the wicketkeeper for a four. The boundary saw Oman reach the mark of 100 runs. A dot ball from Hardik followed.

OMAN 100/1 (14)

Abhishek Sharma leaked 12 runs in the over. Aamir Kaleem smashed the spinner for a six over the deep mid-wicket. That boundary came on the second ball of the over. Later, Hammad Mirza smashed a four behind square on the fourth ball. 

Tilak Varma was brought into the attack in the 11th over of the Oman innings. He conceded 8 runs in it. Shivam Dube continued to bowl from the other end and followed Tilak with a 10-run over. India captain Suryakumar Yadav has now handed the ball to Abhishek Sharma. India continue to stay in command.

OMAN 80/1 (12)

Oman have lost just one wicket so far but a scoring rate of 6.2 in the first 10 overs sees them needing nearly 13 per over from this point. The side needs 127 runs in 60 balls. India are right on top of this game as they have kept Oman at bay.

Kuldeep Yadav has provided India the first breakthrough vs Oman. It was a short ball from the spinner. Jatinder Singh rocked back and tried to hit it on the leg side. All he could do is to get an inside edge on the ball to the stumps.

Jatinder Singh b Kuldeep Yadav 32(33)

OMAN 56/1 (8.3)

An Axar Patel delivery hit Jatinder Singh on the pad while the batter was trying to play a reverse sweep. Umpire raised his finger over the appeal for an LBW but Jatinder decided to review it. It turned out to be a good move as the ball was found to be missing the leg stump.

Kuldeep Yadav, India's top wicket-taker in the ongoing tournament, started with a seven-run over. Meanwhile, Oman raced to the mark of 50 in the over. They haven't lost any wicket but the scoring rate is extremely slow to what is required of them. Oman need 138 runs in 78 balls.

OMAN 51/0 (7)

Jatinder Singh has smashed Harshit Rana for a four. It was a short ball from the India pacer and Jatinder pulled it through the gap between mid-on and mid-wicket for the boundary. 11 runs came off the over. The first powerplay ends here. Oman need 145 runs in 84 balls.

OMAN 44/0 (6)

No boundary in the over from Arshdeep Singh. He conceded 6 runs in it. Oman need 156 runs in 90 balls. The asking rate has already gone over 10 for them. They need to fire now. And with only one over left for the powerplay to end, expect some fireworks.

Harshit Rana was brought into the attack in place of Arshdeep Singh and he started with a six-run over. Aamir Kaleem hit him for a four on the fourth ball of the over. Harshit bowled a short of length ball down the leg side and Kaleem glanced it for a four through fine leg.

Hardik Pandya continued to attack from his end and this time he conceded just four runs in it. Jatinder Singh smashed the pacer for a four on the fifth ball of the over. India are still looking for the first breakthrough.

Nine runs came off the over from Arshdeep Singh. Oman captain Jatinder Singh hit the pacer for a four past the mid-on on the third ball. This is a big chase for Oman, but they are off to a decent start. 

A total of right runs came off the first over from Hardik Pandya. Aamir Kaleem smashed a four on the third ball. Hardik bowled an angled delivery to the southpaw, who smashed it through the extra cover for a four.

Hardik Pandya starts with a fuller ball to Jatinder Singh, who hit it for a single. Aamir Kaleem got on strike after that. With the single, Oman's chase of 189 runs got underway in Abu Dhabi. 

Harshit Rana has slammed this shot ball over the covers for a six and India have posted a total of 188 runs at the loss of 8 wickets in 20 overs against Oman. Suryakumar Yadav remained padded up but could not come out to bat. He sacrificed his chance for other batters tonight. 

IND 188/8 (20)

Another unfortunate dismissal for India! Arshdeep Singh has been run out at the non-striker's end. Harshit Rana smashed it towards the bowler, who got a hand to it. The ball deflected from the hands of the bowler and hit the stumps at the other end. 

Tilak Varma is OUT! That is a good catch by Zikria Islam. Varma tried to go for a big one but Jiten Ramanandi smartly kept the ball away from the batter. The southpaw ended up hitting the ball high in the air and Islam took a good catch running behind at extra cover.

Tilak Varma c Zikria Islam b Jiten Ramanandi 29(18)

IND 176/7 (18.3)

That is the end of Sanju Samson's fine knock. He went across and tried to flick one over the square leg but failed. The connection was good but Samson found the fielder at deep square leg. Shah Faisal gets the wicket. 

Samson c Aryan Bisht b Shah Faisal 56(45) 

IND 171/6 (17.4) 

A four and that is the fifty for Sanju Samson! He gets there in 41 balls. It was a fuller ball from Jiten Ramanandi outsisde off-stump and Samson got a thick outside edge on it while throwing his bat. The ball beat the short third man to run away for a four. He was promoted up the order at number 3 and has made it count with a fine fifty.

IND 166/5 (16.5)

Aamir Kaleem bowled it into the slot of Tilak Varma and the southpaw smashed it over the long-on for a biggie. On the very next ball, Tilak went for a reverse-sweep and got a full toss from Kaleem. He comfortably hit it through the slips for another four. 13 runs came off the over.

Zikria Islam has bowled a six-run over here. India have five more overs left in this innings. Can they cross the mark of 200? Oman have bowled with discipline so far. They have tried to keep the ball away from the batters and that has reaped rewards for them. 

Shivam Dube departs! Aamir Kaleem kept this ball fuller and wide outside off. Dube threw his bat to it and ended up giving a catch towards the mid-off. India are five down. And finally, Tilak Varma, India's top-order batter, comes out at number 7.

Zikria Islam, who was hit for 14 runs in his first over, has bowled economically this time. He conceded only four runs in this over. After the dismissal of Axar Patel, India continued to hold Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma and sent Shivam Dube to bat. 

Axar Patel is OUT! He has nicked this one to the wicketkeeper. Aamir Kaleem has made a good recovery here. He was welcomed with a massive six over deep mid-wicket on the first ball of the over but claimed the wicket on the very next delivery.

Axar c Vinayak Shukla b Aamir Kaleem 26(13)

IND 118/4 (11.2)

Shakeel Ahmed pitched it up on the fourth ball and Axar Patel smashed it down the ground for a four. That went really quick and long-on had no chance. The spinner bowled a good length delivery after that and Axar hit it through the extra cover for another boundary. 12 runs came off the over.

IND 112/3 (11)

Sanju Samson smashed Zikria Islam for a six on the fourth ball. A total of 14 runs came off the over. India have reached the mark of 100 runs. They have 60 balls left in this innings. Anything above 200 should be a big total on this surface.

7.3 - An unlucky dismissal for Hardik Pandya this is! Sanju Samson hit the Jiten Ramanandi delivery back towards the bowler, who got his left hand on the ball which then hit the stumps at non-striker's end, finding Hardik short of his crease. Axar Patel has come in to bat at number 5.

Hardik Pandya run out (Jiten Ramanandi) 1(1)

Jiten Ramanandi has dismissed Abhishek Sharma. It was a good length ball from Ramanandi outside off-stump and Abhishek threw his bat to it. He ended up edging it to the wicketkeeper. Hardik Pandya is coming out to bat at number 4. This is another huge change from India in batting order.

Abhishek Sharma c Vinayak Shukla b Jiten Ramanandi 38(15)

Wow! That is a sensational six from Abhishek Sharma. It was a fuller ball outside off-stump from Jiten Ramanandi and the southpaw smashed it over the long-off for a biggie. India are flying high. That is the end of the first powerplay.

IND 60/1 (6)

Abhishek Sharma later hit two consecutive fours to Mohammad Nadeem in the over. A total of three fours came in the over. It gave India 19 runs. This is some terrific piece of batting from Abhishek. This is what he is known for!

Mohammad Nadeem comes into the attack and he has been welcomed with a boundary. It was a good length ball outside off-stump and Abhishek Sharma got an outside edge on it. The ball flew over the point for a four.

IND 34/1 (4.1)

Abhishek Sharma just bats on another planet. Unfazed of how tight Oman started in their bowling, he smashed Shakeel Ahmed for two fours and one six. A total of 16 runs came off the over. India are on the move.

Wow! That is a beautiful delivery from Oman pacer Shah Faisal to dismiss Shubman Gill. It was bowled fuller from the left-arm fast bowler. The ball swung sharply and Gill was a bit late into the drive. The ball went though his bat-pad gap and hit the off-stump.

Gill b Shah Faisal 5(8) 

IND 6/1 (1.3)

Shakeel Ahmed pitched it up outside off-stump and Shubman Gill comfortably drove it through the extra cover for a four. Easy things for India's T20I vice-captain. He took a single off the next delivery by driving the ball to long-off. A total of 6 runs came off the over. 

IND 6/0 (1)

The action has got underway in Abu Dhabi and there is an appeal on the very first ball of the over. Left-arm spinner Shakeel Ahmed bowled a fuller ball and Abhishek Sharma tried to go for a big one but missed it. Umpire is unconvinced with the appeal for an LBW but Oman have gone upstairs only to waste one as the ball was pitched outside leg stump. The batters stole a single on leg bye.

The players of both the sides have walked out to the middle for their respective national anthems. Oman start first and India will follow them. The match will begin in some minutes from now.

"Good pitch. Played well yesterday and it's a similar pitch being used. Nice sprinkle of grass, but underneath it's dry. Not much spin but you can attack in powerplay. Abu Dhabi produces best limited-overs pitches (in UAE)," said Waqar Younis and Ravi Shastri on the surface on offer.

India (Playing XI): Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Sanju Samson(w), Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav

Oman (Playing XI): Aamir Kaleem, Jatinder Singh(c), Hammad Mirza, Vinayak Shukla(w), Shah Faisal, Zikria Islam, Aryan Bisht, Mohammad Nadeem, Shakeel Ahmed, Samay Shrivastava, Jiten Ramanandi

"I would have batted first. It is a great experience to take from here. Our team is young, lack exposure but this gives them a good chance to come here and test themselves. It is a great opportunity to share the field with India and get a look at their mindset. We have two changes," said Oman captain Jatinder Singh as he also forgot one change.

"We are looking to bat first. We have not batted first in this competition and we want to know our depth. Having game time is important going into the Super 4s. We want to continue the good habits we are doing in the first two games and want to continue to do that. It is looking nice and our openers will assess it further. We have two changes - Harshit comes in, one more guy comes in, I have become like Rohit (laughs)," said India captain Suryakumar Yadav.

India captain Suryakumar Yadav has won the toss and opted to bat first against Oman in their final Group A game in Asia Cup 2025. He informed that the team is playing with two changes. Suryakumar mentioned the name of Harshit Rana but forgot the another name.

We are only four minutes away from the toss for the game. India will aim to win the coin flip and bat first against Oman, giving their batters the entire 20 overs.

If India head coach Gautam Gambhir is expected to rest Jasprit Bumrah for Arshdeep Singh. However, if he wants to be slightly more experimental, then he can also play Harshit Rana, giving one among Varun or Kuldeep a rest.

Kuldeep Yadav is India's leading wicket-taker in the ongoing edition with a total of 7 wickets to his name. He returned 4 for 7 in the first game against United Arab Emirates, and then picked 3 for 18 against Pakistan.

Kuldeep Yadav needs only four more wickets to become the India bowler with most scalps in the history of Asia Cup. He has so far 26 wickets to his name (19 in ODIs and 7 in T20Is) in the tournament. Only Ravindra Jadeja, with 29 wickets (25 in ODIs and 4 in T20Is) is ahead of Kuldeep in the list.

India might aim to rest Jasprit Bumrah and play Arshdeep Singh in his place for this game. Rest of the squad should remain same.

India's Probable XI: Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (c), Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson (wk), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy

Sunil Gavaskar feels the team management should decide to bench marquee pacer Jasprit Bumrah, even from the Pakistan clash, so that he remains fully fit for the Asia Cup final on September 28. He feel India don't need Bumrah for the match against Oman, and the one against Pakistan on the coming Sunday.

"I believe Jasprit Bumrah should be rested, perhaps even for the Pakistan game, so he's available for the bigger match on Sunday, the 28th," he said.

India have batted second in both their games that have taken place so far. The kind of dominance the side has shown in bowling, their batters always had less work to do in the chase. India have collectively batted for only 20.2 overs in both the matches. If Suryakumar Yadav wins the toss tonight, he would definitely want to bat first to give the team a chance to play the complete 20 overs.

This is the last game in the group stage of Asia Cup 2025. After this match, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka will be heading to the Super Four stage. The Suryakumar Yadav-led side will aim to give some more time to batters in order to get ready for the Super Four game vs Pakistan that is set to take place on Sunday, September 21.
