HK vs OMA Live Cricket Score

2.3 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Hong Kong draw first blood and that too early on. A big wicket as Khawar Ali played really well in the last game. This is a nothing shot to be honest, his eyes were off the ball, he was trying to swing at it blindly and pays the price. This is a length delivery and outside off, Ali throws the kitchen sink at it. The ball kisses the outside edge and it goes to the keeper who takes. The Hong Kong players are pumped up. Just the start they would have wanted. 8/1

3.3 OUT! Direct hit and run out! The batsman is standing his ground, he believes, he was in. Hong Kong do not care though as they are on cloud nine at the moment. Excellent start for them as they have two early wickets. This is full and on middle, Singh works it towards mid on and takes a start. Ilyas starts rushing towards the other end but is sent back. Nizakhat Khan picks the ball up, takes aim and hits the stumps at the bowler's end. Ilyas did dive but that did not save him. 18/2

4.4 OUT! Huge mix-up and it is another run out! Oman in disarray at the moment. But what fielding here from Oman. They have had two chances to run the batter out, they needed to hit the stumps directly on both the occasion and they have done so. It just seems they are up for this game and are hungrier than their opponents who look really nervous at the moment. This is also a good wicket as Zeeshan can really be dangerous. This is on off, Zeeshan taps it towards cover and takes a start. Singh is off, Zeeshan hesitates but then sees Singh is almost beside him. He then goes for it. Kinchit Shah picks the ball up, realizes he has a lot of time, aims and then hits bull's eye at the non-striker's end. ZM walks back with his head down. 22/3

6.4 OUT! In the air... taken! The Oman dressing room is shell-shocked at the moment. They just can't understand what is going on. What shot was that? Was it needed at the moment? NO! Nadeem has literally gifted his wicket to Hong Kong. It is a length ball outside off, Nadeem swings but the ball takes the top edge and lobs towards third man. It is a skier. Barkat settles under it nicely and takes a good catch. Oman slip further. 31/4

8 OUT! Taken on the second attempt! Half the side back in the hut and the score has not even crossed 50. Hong Kong all over Oman at the moment. The offie strikes in his first over itself. It is the arm ball, it is quicker and outside off. Kumar looks to punch it through the off side but there is a thick outside edge. McKechnie fails to take it on the second attempt but to his luck, it pops up nicely and he grabs it on the second attempt. 37/5

9 OUT! LBW! Another one bites the dust! It is all falling apart for Oman here. This decision is a tad unlucky though as replays show that there was an inside edge. Once again a bowler who is bowling his first over strikes. Ghazanfar lands it on off and then it turns back in. Khan looks to defend but there are two noises, one is off the ball hitting the pad. A huge appeal, the umpire shakes his head initially but then raises his finger. 42/6

16.5 OUT! Kaleem tries to be smart but fails to execute his attempted shot properly. Cleverly bowled by Rana. A slower one on a length around off, Kaleem walks across the stumps with the intention to spoon it over short fine leg. But since there is no pace to work with, he ends up mistiming it in the air. A simple catch for Mohammad Ghazanfar who moves across to his left to accept it. End of a 42-run stand, a handy one given the situation Oman were in! 84/7

0.2 OUT! Boom! The off stump takes a beating! Just the kind of start Oman wanted! Bilal is a delighted man. He gets a fuller length ball to curl back into the batsman off the seam. He pitches it around off, Nizakat has a flash at it without moving his feet and is beaten comprehensively. The stumps are shattered and Bilal has drawn first blood. 1/1

2.4 OUT! KABOOM! Knocked him over! Three wickets in the 16 balls bowled and Oman right on top now. This is a gem of a delivery. Unplayable. An inswinging yorker. Can't do a lot about that one. It starts from outside off and comes back in late. Aizaz can't bring his bat down in time and the stumps behind are shattered. 122 needed in 104. 13/3

1.2 OUT! TAKEN! Two down in the second over are Hong Kong and Oman are pumped up here. An unlucky dismissal one can say. It is full and tailing back in onto the pads. Shah flicks it nicely but does not keep it down and it goes straight to the fielder at short fine leg. Had it been to the left or the right of that fielder, it would have been a boundary. Kinchit Shah fails to make an impact with the bat. 126 more needed. 9/2

16.2 OUT! LBW! Plumb in front. McKechnie is out of here and that is probably the final nail in the coffin. SM shuffles right across and Nadeem bowls it very full and on middle. Scott looks to whip it on the leg side but misses to get hit on the pads. An appeal and up goes the finger. End of a good knock from him. He fought a lone battle but needed to continue. 33 needed in 22. 102/8

2.5 Out? Not out? OUT! Well, the umpire has given it eventually! LBW! Waqas goes first ball. Hong Kong now in tatters. Two in two for Bilal Khan. Another one of those full inswingers. This seems to be a little too straight though. Barkat fails to put bat on ball and is hit on the pads. An appeal goes up. The umpire starts to move across to his left but then decides to lift his finger. That's a very late decision. He, in fact, tries to put his finger down also but eventually has given the striker out. Bilal Khan is bowling a dream spell, he is on a hat-trick. 13/4

3.4 OUT! In the air... taken! Bilal Khan is the catcher! He is everywhere at the moment. You just can't keep him out of the game. A short one on middle, Singh looks to pull but the bounce gets big on him. He only manages a top edge which goes high up in the air towards short fine leg where Khan takes a dolly. Half the side back in the hut for Hong Kong within 4 overs. 18/5

11.4 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Khawar Ali strikes. The stand which started to worry Oman has been broken. Turn and bounce there and the outside edge is found. This lands on off and then turns away. Haroon plays a nothing stroke. He hangs his bat outside. The ball hits the outside edge and Suraj takes a sharp catch behind the stumps. 65 needed in 50 balls. 70/6

13.3 OUT! TIMBER! The wrong shot and that brings about the downfall. Misreads the length and the line. This is the straighter one on middle, it skids through. Ehsan Khan looks to play the late cut but there is not enough room for that shot. He misses and the off pole is hit. 7 down and now the task looks very tough for Hong Kong. 82/7

18.3 OUT! BOWLED 'EM! The leg stump goes for a walk! Another yorker. Rana skips down the track and swings blindly. The ball goes under the bat and the leg stump is uprooted. Fourth one for Bilal. Hong Kong are 9 down. Bilal Khan has three more balls to take his fifth. 111/9
