Summary
India will round off their group stage campaign in the Asia Cup 2025 with a clash against Oman in Abu Dhabi on Friday. Having already locked in their Super 4 spot, the Suryakumar Yadav-led side will treat this fixture as a chance to get much-needed batting practice before their high-voltage rematch with Pakistan on Sunday. The game has little bearing on the points table, but India will look to fine-tune their approach at the crease after two straightforward chases earlier in the tournament.
For India, the biggest priority will be giving time in the middle to their batters. The top order, led by Abhishek Sharma’s quick starts and Shubman Gill’s solidity, will aim to capitalise against an inexperienced Omani attack. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma and the middle-order trio of Hardik Pandya, Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube all need extended outings ahead of the busier phase, when India could play four matches in a week if they reach the final.
On the other side, Oman have had a difficult campaign so far, folding for 67 and 130 in their two defeats. No batter has crossed 30 in the tournament, underlining the gulf in quality between the two teams. Jatinder Singh’s men face the daunting task of handling a versatile Indian bowling unit, with Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakaravarthy in particular likely to trouble them on Abu Dhabi’s surface. If Oman bat first, the match could be over quickly given their struggles.
India may use this opportunity to rotate a few players, with head coach Gautam Gambhir possibly resting Jasprit Bumrah or giving Arshdeep Singh some game time. The Sheikh Zayed Stadium will be India’s only outing in Abu Dhabi during the competition, but the focus remains firmly on sharpening skills rather than chasing results. With a Super 4's meeting against Pakistan looming, the Oman clash is a low-pressure dress rehearsal for India’s batting core.
