Australia Vs Oman, ICC T20 World Cup 2026: Mitchell Marsh And Adam Zampa Forge Commanding 9-Wicket Win

Australia wrapped up their ICC T20 2026 World Cup journey by crushing Oman by 9 wickets in Pallekele. Though the 2021 champions were already eliminated from Super 8 contention, following stunning upsets against Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, the Aussies made sure to conclude the tournament on a high note. Adam Zampa was the architect of the collapse as he dismantled the middle order to finish with figures of 4/21. Xavier Bartlett and Glenn Maxwell picked up two wickets each with Oman getting bowled out for just 104 in just 16.2 overs. In response. Mitchell Marsh unleashed a relentless assault, hitting an unbeaten 64 off 33 balls, featuring 7 fours and 4 sixes. Australia sprinted to the target in just 9.4 overs, matching the tournament record for the quickest chase of a 100-plus total. See some of the best photos from the match.
