Dream11 Fantasy Preview and Head To Head Matches Numbers of OMN vs PNG:
ICC Men’s T20I World Cup is all set to commence with Oman locking horns with Papua New Guinea in the Inaugural match of the Group B at the beautiful Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1) on October 17 at 03:30 PM IST.
Oman will be playing their second World Cup with a strong squad who have practiced well during the recent times and put up good shows with both bat and ball. Oman recently defeated Indian domestic team Mumbai by 2-1 in T20s which consisted of big names like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan and Shivam Dube. They tried to play as many matches as possible before the commencement of the tournament as we have seen them competing in two T20 series just 2-3 days ago.
On the other hand, Papua New Guinea will make their first ever appearance in a big event like this which is going to be a great opportunity for them to showcase their talent to a larger audience who will be watching them at Stadium and on televisions too. However they lost both of their tournament warm ups matches played recently but the stage is set for them to deliver their best at this grand stage and feel the heat of the real competition.
