Australia are playing against Oman in the 10th match of the T20 World Cup 2024. This match is being played at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados.

Australia was invited to bat first in the game after Oman won the toss. David Warner and Travis Head opened the innings for Australia. But they did not get the start that they would have ideally wanted. 

Oman managed to pick up the first three wickets of the Australian batting line-up within the first nine overs. Even though Head, Marsh, and Maxwell returned to the pavilion, David Warner held one end.
