Brandon King scored 100 off 104 balls (15x4s) while Shai Hope made an unbeaten 63 as the West Indies remained largely unchallenged in the contest, scoring 222 for three in 39.4 overs after restricting Oman to 221 for nine in 50 overs.

West Indies vs Oman World Cup Qualifier
That is it from this game! The action continues in the Super Sixes as Netherlands will take on Scotland at 12.30 pm IST (7 am GMT) on the 6th of this month. Join us for the coverage. Cheers!
Shai Hope says in international cricket there is no walkovers. Adds they played well today and it was a collective performance. Reckons they just tried to enjoy the game and showed some fight in this game. On King, Hope says he is happy with the way he is playing and hopes it continues.
Aqib Ilyas says they were short of runs as the pitch was flat and also the way the wicket fell didn't help them. Adds Oman is in the top 6 and have shown their skills, so as a team it was a collective performance and against a side like West Indies it helps to showcase the skills. Shares Oman is going to play the emerging cup and then the T20 World Cup qualifiers.
...Presentation next...
Brandon King is the Player of the Match. He says he tries to keep it simple and stay patient and take the opportunity when it comes. Adds it is important to stay consistent. Reckons to start the innings is the hardest part but after that the clarity comes.
The Windies were off to a flier with King scoring a ton. Carty helped at the start but the winning partnership was with the skipper who remained not out as he cruised through his fifty. So, Oman end the tournament with an unfortunate loss but the Windies will be really happy with this win.
A comfortable win for the Windies. They regrouped well to get a victory after three consecutive losses. Maybe it was the pressure of qualifying which was pulling them down. Windies won the toss and they were absolutely brilliant with the ball. They were a bit off in the fag end of the innings but did well to keep Oman near 220. For Oman, if not for the middle order to click, they would have ended near 150.
