...Presentation...

Earlier in the game, UAE posted 172 in their innings, a par score on the Abu Dhabi pitch. Openers Alishan Sharafu and Muhammad Waseem added 50 runs, with Sharafu playing aggressively and Waseem batting supportively. Sharafu scored 51 before getting dismissed, while Waseem registered his fifty as well (his 24th fifty while also going past 3000 T20I runs). Harshit Kaushik finished the innings strongly with his cameo of 19. For Oman, Shakeel Ahmed, Jiten Ramanandi, and Hassnain Shah were economical, but the rest of the bowling crew struggled to contain the UAE batters.

Well, United Arab Emirates had the runs to play with but their bowlers didn't rest as they executed plans, scalping Oman's five wickets inside 10 overs. Chasing such a total needed a big start but only one of Oman's top five ended with a double-digit score. Later, Aryan Bisht and Vinayak Shukla scored a couple of boundaries but it never looked like Oman will get back on track. Junaid Siddique was at his best with the new ball. Muhammad Rohid played the supporting cast. However, it was Junaid Siddique's four-fer that sealed the deal.

A complete effort from United Arab Emirates and they have opened the points table in this year's Asia Cup. Meanwhile, Oman are the only team remaining to get a victory in Group A and they are officially out of the race for the next round.
