Australia vs Oman LIVE Updates, T20 World Cup:Â Australia take on Oman in a dead rubber T20 World Cup 2026 Group B clash in Pallekele on Friday. Australia are the most high-profile team to fail it to qualify for the Super 8 stage, following losses to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. This match provides Australia the opportunity to test some different players, with Steve Smith potentially in line to play his first T20I in nearly two years. Retirement rumours have also surrounded a few of Australia's veterans, in particular Glenn Maxwell. Oman are rock bottom of Group B but will be hoping to put up a fight. The match could be affected by rain, with thunderstorms in the forecast. (Live Scorecard)

AUS vs OMA LIVE, T20 World Cup 2026
DRINKS BREAK! Oman have reached 47/3 after 6 overs in their final 2026 T20 World Cup group match against Australia. Despite losing a wicket on the very first ball of the innings, the Oman batters have maintained a steady scoring rate by aggressively punishing loose deliveries.
SIX! Width offered and Hammad Mirza cashes in! Short and wide on off, there to be put away. Mirza does not miss out. He stands tall, frees his arms and slaps it over cover for a biggie.
Direct hit! On a good length, on middle. Hammad Mirza drops it in front of mid-wicket. Wasim Ali is keen for a single and he is nearly halfway down the track before being sent back. The fielder gets to the ball quickly and has a shy at the bowling end. He hits but the smart replays confirm that Ali was in by then.
Angled into the left-hander, on a short of a length, Ali tucks it wide of mid-wicket and crosses over.
Fuller in length, on off, Wasim pushes it back to the bowler off the front foot.
On top of off, on a back of a length. Ali stabs it down on the off side.
Dug in short by Green, around the left shoulder. Mirza hangs deep and awkwardly fends it behind square on the leg side for a single.
Another low score for Oman's skipper, Jatinder Singh, rounds off what has been a disappointing World Cup campaign for him. Wasim Ali makes his way out to the centre. Cameron Green is introduced into the attack.
OUT! BOWLED 'EM! A fuller delivery from Xavier Bartlett and Jatinder Singh gets cleaned up. He stays back to a full ball and pushes out in front without any footwork. The ball nips back in to go past the inside edge and crashes into the stumps. Third wicket in the Powerplay for Australia.
On a length around middle and leg, Hammad Mirza pushes this gently to mid on and takes one.
Short and on middle and leg, Jatinder Singh pulls this behind square on leg and takes a single.
A slower one, dropping on the batter. Jatinder Singh jams this to mid off.
Xavier bowls it around that nagging length on middle and leg, Jatinder Singh goes deep inside the crease and blocks this out on off.
FOUR! The best Singh has looked throughout this tournament. A bit of width on offer from Xavier as he bowls it short and wide of off, Jatinder Singh stays leg side and nails the square cut for a boundary to kickstart the fifth over.
LEG BYE! Good length, into the batter, going down the leg side. Jatinder Singh goes for a flick but misses and gets it deflected off his pads to backward point for a leg bye.
Slower one, back of a length, on off. Hammad Mirza gently places this in front of cover-point and takes a single.
On a length around off, Jatinder Singh steps across and dabs this gently in front of mid on to rotate the strike.
Good length on off, Hammad Mirza punches this to mid on and takes a run.
FIVE WIDES! Ellis sprays it down leg and it keeps going further away from the keeper. Josh Inglis flings himself to his left and sticks out his left glove. He gets a hand on it, but it is not enough. The ball clips his fingertips and goes down to deep fine leg for a boundary.
Out goes Karan Sonavale and in walks Hammad Mirza.
