Toss Decision – Captain’s Comments & Reasoning
“We will bowl first. There would be some moment in the first few overs, so we want to give a chance to our bowlers. We have been here for some time, which has helped us in our preparations. The idea is to bowl first and then allow our batters to chase it down,” Sikandar Raza said.
Oman skipper Jatinder Singh would have bowled first as well.
