Toss Winner - India won the toss and choose to bat first
India won by 21 runs
India will aim for a commanding total between 190 and 200 if they get the chance to bat first. Oman, however, would consider a first-innings score of 150 a strong effort should they get to set a target.
India are all set to dominate and win this clash.

The last group match of the Asia Cup 2025 will have India take on Oman at Abu Dhabi. India have already booked their Super Four spot with two comfortable wins and are favorites to enter the next stage with another easy win. Oman, meanwhile, are already out after losing their first two games, and can only hope to give some tough competition to the strong Indian side.

India have made a confident start to the Asia Cup. The defending champions eased past the UAE first, and then brushed aside Pakistan by seven wickets in their next encounter. With their Super Four place already confirmed, this clash gives them an opportunity to give both batters and bowlers a good workout before the tougher tests arrive.
Abhishek Sharma will be asked again to provide an aggressive burst in the powerplay, and even a quick 20 or 30 from him could swing the opening phase just as it did against Pakistan. Shubman Gill is expected to anchor the innings, while Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma will aim to lift the tempo in the middle overs. Gill and Suryakumar, who struck an unbeaten 47 off 37 in that Pakistan game, appear the safest options for 30-plus scores here.
The bench strength in the batting is also impressive, with Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, and Axar Patel all able to add quick runs if they get a chance out in the middle.
The bowling attack, though, looks even more dangerous. Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Varun Chakaravarthy have been hard to handle so far, and they will test Oman’s batting unit. Adding to that spin trio, they have Jasprit Bumrah, widely seen as the best pacer around, while Pandya and Dube give them extra overs with their slower variations.
Abhishek Sharma Total Runs Over 28.5 1.85
Abhishek Sharma has scored 61 runs in 2 matches in this year's Asia Cup. He has provided quick fire starts to India in both the matches played. Given his current run of form, expect a big knock from him and we predict his score to be over 28 runs in this fixture.

Oman are already out of the Asia Cup after suffering two big defeats – by 93 runs versus Pakistan and by 42 runs against UAE. Now they face an even tougher test against India, and their best chance will be to compete hard and at least make the contest closer in their final outing.
The batting unit has been poor so far, and unless they raise their game this time, it will be difficult to stay in the contest. Skipper Jatinder Singh is key to their prospects. While he has failed in this tournament, he was their most consistent performer in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 with 484 runs in 15 games at an average of 35. A contribution of 30 to 40 runs from him here would be valuable.
Aamir Kaleem also comes into the frame, having done well in the USA series where he made 99 runs across three innings at a strike rate of 130.26. Vinayak Shukla and Hammad Mirza can chip in with smaller cameos in the 20 to 30 run range.
The bowling has fared better for Oman. Shah Faisal has been their most successful option so far, taking three wickets in two matches while conceding at 9.87 per over. Aamir Kaleem has provided support with three wickets of his own at an economy of 9. Shakeel Ahmed and Samay Shrivastava bring further depth, offering control while remaining capable of striking in these conditions.
Hammad Mirza Total Runs Over 11.5 1.85
In the ongoing Asia Cup, Hammad Mirza has scored 32 runs in 2 matches, averaging 16. Although he has gotten off to good starts in both matches, he has failed to capitalize on them. We back him to play a solid knock in this fixture against the top-class Indian bowling lineup and predict his score will be over 11 runs.

The pitch at Sheikh Zayed Stadium strikes a fair balance, giving batters the freedom to attack early while offering pacers enough movement to stay in the game. Spinners will find their rhythm in the middle overs, especially if they keep their lines tight. Batting becomes simpler in the second innings as dew settles in, making it easier to chase down totals.
Abu Dhabi’s weather will be hot and humid, but clear skies mean the match will go ahead without any interruptions from rain.

The average score batting first at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium is 143. The highest total posted at the venue in this Asia Cup is Afghanistan’s 188-6 versus Hong Kong. For this match, if India bat first, they would look to dominate and push to a total of around 190-200. If Oman bat first, a score of 150 might be their ceiling.
Oman to win the coin toss 1.90
We back Oman to win the coin toss in the 12th match of Asia Cup 2025 against India.
Three of the five games of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium have been won by the side batting first. However, India prefers to chase, so they're likely to bowl first should they win the toss. Oman, though, may like to bat first, if they get a choice.
India will look to make light work of Oman in their final group fixture before they move on to the Super Fours. They have dominated so far and are leagues above Oman in quality. Oman are already out of the tournament and can just hope to give the tournament favorites some fight. However, as things stand now, India are all set to register a comprehensive and comfortable win here.
India are all set to dominate and win this clash.
