UAE vs OMA Match Analysis
The United Arab Emirates will face Oman in the 7th Match, Group A of the Asia Cup 2025, scheduled at Abu Dhabi on September 15, 2025. The contest is crucial as both sides seek to revive their campaigns after early setbacks.
The UAE team has a mix of seasoned and emerging talents, but struggled in their opening game. Skipper Muhammad Waseem carries the burden of scoring quick runs upfront. Their strength lies in a few explosive batters and disciplined bowlers who can change the game if they find rhythm.
Oman, led by Jatinder Singh, brings grit and determination, but has yet to come together as a complete unit. Their batting has shown vulnerabilities against quality bowling. Still, with experienced all-rounders in the squad, they remain a side capable of springing surprises.
United Arab Emirates vs Oman Team Preview & Squads
United Arab Emirates
Muhammad Waseem, a hard-hitting opener, is the face of UAE cricket in the shorter formats. His ability to dominate the power play can set the tone for his team. However, he will need to convert brisk starts into bigger contributions to inspire his side.
The batting unit has players like Asif Khan and Alishan Sharafu, who can stabilize the innings after early breakthroughs. Rahul Chopra and Ethan D’Souza provide additional options in the middle order.
The UAE bowling attack revolves around Junaid Siddique and Muhammad Jawadullah’s pace alongside Matiullah Khan’s control. Simranjeet Singh and Harshit Kaushik offer spin options in the middle overs.
The UAE had a disastrous outing against India, where they were bundled out for just 57 runs. The batting lineup looked unsettled and failed to handle India’s pace attack. Their bowlers hardly got a chance to defend such a low score. India comfortably chased down the target at 60/1, winning by 9 wickets with 93 balls to spare.

OMA batting has depth with stroke-makers like Aamir Kaleem and Aryan Bisht. The presence of wicketkeeper-batter Vinayak Shukla adds value in the middle order. However, their collapse against Pakistan highlighted their need for better temperament under pressure.
