Defending champions England decimated Oman at Antigua’s Sir Vivian Richards Stadium to register their first win of the 2024 T20 World Cup. The outcome provided a major NRR boost to Jos Buttler’s troops as they aim to catch up with Scotland on the Group B points table.

Here’s the timeline of how ENG vs OMA panned out in Antigua:

English speed demons Jofra Archer and Mark Wood blazed through Oman’s top-order within the opening six overs of the match.

While Archer accounted for the wickets of opener Pratik Athavale and captain Aqib Ilyas in the first two overs of his new-ball spell, Wood chipped in with the wickets of Zeeshan Maqsood and Kashyap Prajapati as Oman’s top-order crumbled at 25-4 in six overs.

Primary English spinner Adil Rashid also made instant impact with the ball, taking wickets in each of his four overs to finish with figures of 4-11. After getting Khalid Kail out stumped off the first ball of his spell, the cricketer dismissed Mehran Khan and cleaned up Fayyaz Butt and Kaleemullah.

Jofra Archer and Mark Wood also added a wicket each to their tally after the opening powerplay to collect six wickets between them to dust out Oman for just 47 in 13.2 overs.

ENG vs OMA Highlights: England Lose Two In Two OVERS

Phil Salt launched England’s run-chase with two sixes off the first two balls before losing his off stump to Bilal Khan. Number three batter Will Jacks (five runs off seven balls) also skied up towards point against Kaleemullah as England lost their second wicket at 20 in 1.5 overs.


ENG vs OMA Highlights: Buttler, Bairstow Sum Up Game In 3.1 Overs

England captain and opening batter Jos Buttler bashed 24* from eight balls, and minted 22 of those runs off a single Bilal Khan over.

Number four Jonny Bairstow flogged boundaries in each of the two deliveries he faced as England romped home to an eight-wicket win with nearly 17 overs intact in the game.
