IND-A Vs OMA: Team Previews
India A
India A, led by Tilak Varma, has been unbeaten in this Emerging Asia Cup. After winning a close thriller against arch-rivals Pakistan, the men in blue secured a dominant victory over UAE on Monday. Rasik Salam’s triple strike in an over left UAE completely stunned and demoralised. Ramandeep Singh delivered the knockout punch to eliminate the tail and bowl out UAE to just 107 runs.
The chase was a cakewalk, with Abhishek Sharma firing all cylinders to score 58 off 24 balls. Tilak Varma also gave Sharma a helping hand with 21 off 18 balls as India won the game in just 10.5 overs to advance to the semi-finals. Undoubtedly, India A are favourites to win this tournament let alone the upcoming contest against Oman. Going unbeaten will definitely boost their confidence for the knockout stage.
Oman
Meanwhile, Oman has yet to taste victory in this Emerging Asia Cup, with two losses in two games. In the previous game against Pakistan A, Oman leaked too many runs in the first innings and got caught up in the pressure of 186-run chase. After a gritty 28-run opening stand between Jatinder Singh and Aamir Kaleem, Oman collapsed to 52/3 by 10 overs.
The required rate kept piling up, and eventually, they fell short of 74 runs to endure yet another shambolic loss. Having said that, their odds of semi-final qualifications are more or less over. However, bowing out on a high note to secure the pride of the team is important, and with nothing to lose, Oman will be competitive in their final game of the Emerging Asia Cup.

IND-A Vs OMA: Al Amerat Pitch Report
Al Amerat pitch has enough to offer to batters if capitalised well. Moreover, as the game progresses, the pitch will remain true, with minimal deterioration, making it easier for batters to score. As is common in many subcontinental venues, spinners will come into play in the second half. And given the tournament trend so far, chasing seems an ideal option, with anything over 180 being a match-winning score.
