Oman vs Namibia Betting Tips
Namibia to score under 17.5 runs before 1st dismissal (1.85@PARIMATCH)
Namibia is a stronger team on paper in comparison to Oman in the 20 over format. However, they have been struggling currently in the batting department. Malan Kruger and Nikolaas Davin opened for the team in those games and posted the scores of 20, 43 & 3 runs before their 1st dismissal. Coming into this series, Malan Kruger and JP Kotze opened for the team and posted the score of 10 & 0 runs before their first dismissal in two games. Kruger and Kotze average at 19.37 & 19.67 in the format but look out of form currently. Oman have a weak batting line-up as well but boast a pretty decent bowling unit. That said, Namibia will be losing their 1st wicket pretty early in the next game.
Match Prediction Best Odds
Oman vs Namibia Toss Prediction
The next T20I between Oman and Namibia is set to take place at Al Amerat Cricket Ground Oman Cricket (Ministry Turf 1). It is known to assist both batters and bowlers. The wicket is usually slow, and the batters need to farm strike and convert singles to doubles. Bowlers need to be accurate in their lines and lengths. Given it is an afternoon game, batting first would be the best option, as the pitch could get slower with the progression of the match.
Weather Report
It will be a hot day on April 4, 2024. The weather will be perfect for a game of cricket. The temperature will hover around 28 degree Celsius during the game. The humidity will be around 40%.
