ZIM vs OMN Highlights: Zimbabwe won the contest by 14 runs as Oman could only reach 318 runs with the loss of nine wickets in their chase of 333. A fighting performance from Oman batters kept Zimbabwe on their toes but in the end the target was too big for Oman. For the home team, senior batter Sean Williams was adjudged player of the match for his magnificent century.
Due to their two losses to Sri Lanka and Scotland, Oman will not carry any points into the Super Sixes. This dents the Middle Eastern side’s chances of qualifying for the World Cup 2023 in India. Oman started their campaign emphatically, upsetting a strong Irish side by chasing down 282 runs in 48 overs and with five wickets in hand. A win against UAE in their next match strengthened their chances even more, but they couldn’t carry the momentum against the two strong sides they faced in their final games.
