Pak vs omn asia cup 2025: Pakistan and Oman are being played at Dubai International Stadium. In this match, the captain of the Pakistan team won the toss and decided to bat first and scored 160 runs on the scoreboard losing 7 wickets in 20 overs. Now Oman will get 120 balls to pursue a target of this 161 runs. If you look at the T20 I, then this goal is easily being chased. However, the pitch and the bowling of Pakistan can put some life in it. Move from all this, now Pakistanis see weaknesses in batting again.
Sam Ayub could not open the account as an opener
Before the match against Oman, there was a lot of discussion about left -handed opener Sam Ayub. In many places, it was being said in the Pakistani media that this batsman would blow up, but when a team like Oman came in front, his account did not open. On the second ball of the first over, he became the victim of Faizal Shah. Apart from this, other opener Sahibzada Farhan scored 29 runs off 29 balls. In such a situation, the question arises that when this opener could not play Oman bowler, how will the Indian bowlers be able to withstand where Jasprit is a world class bowler like Bumrah.
Pakistan’s middle order also did not show power
After being dismissed on the opener, the team has high expectations from the middle order batsmen, but that too was seen in the Pakistan team. Team captain Salman Ali Aga continued to walk the path of the pavilion without opening an account. These are the same players who were making big claims about the match of India and Pakistan and saying that they would defeat India. Now just think, when their account against Oman did not open, what will happen to India? Apart from these, Fakhar Zaman also scored 23* runs off 16 balls. Although Mohammad Harris scored a rapid innings of 66 runs, his easy catch was dripped by Oman’s fielder in the beginning.

Pakistan’s lower order is also completely absent
Pakistan’s lower order like opener and middle order against Oman is also completely absent. Take a look at the batting, Hasan Nawaz has scored 9 runs in 15 balls, Mohammad Nawaz 19 and Faheem Ashraf has scored just 8 runs. This clearly shows how helpless Pakistan’s lower order is, which could not withstand the bowlers of Oman. No batsman showed a long and understanding innings for the team. In such a situation, it is going to be very difficult for them to face Team India.
