Pitch Report:
The Oman wicket assists both bowlers as well as the batters. While the pacers can make inroads with swing, the batters can also make the most of their opportunities once they find their rhythm on the 22 yards. Once batters are set, any total can be chased down even if it happens to be a high-scoring affair. Therefore, the captain that calls it right at the toss will look to have a bowl first. Another reason to bowl first is taking the dew factor into consideration later on as the game progresses.
Probable Playing XIs for Amerat Royals vs Ruwi Rangers
Amerat Royals
Pratik Athavale, Akshay Patel, Rafiuallah, Karan Sonavale (c), Mehran Khan, Vinayak Shukla, Bilal Khan, Viren Patel, Hemal Tandel, Khafid un Nabi Siddiqui, Yasir Ali
Ruwi Rangers
Khalid Kail, Sanuth Ibrahim (c), Wasim Ali, Shafqat Ullah, Jitenkumar Ramanandi, Mohamed Usmani (wk), Mohit Patel, Mohammed Naseem Khushi, Kaleemullah, Hasnain Ali, Hanan Riznan
Probable best batter: Akshay Patel
Akshay Patel is second on the list of most runs scored in the ongoing competition having amassed 157 runs averaging 39.25 in four matches for the Amerat Royals. Patel might have only scored 23 in the last game against the Bousher Busters but, that was a vital knock that proved beneficial for his team in the end. The promising batter would be expected to play a memorable knock against an opposition that has the reputation of posting mammoth totals in this tournament.
Probable best bowler: Sanuth Ibrahim
Sanuth Ibrahim is one of the most consistent bowlers in this competition with seven scalps to his name from three outings at an average of 7.85. He is also second on the list of most wickets taken this season. The offie has the potential to bowl match-defining spells on his day and should the Rangers post a mammoth total batting first, Ibrahim would be expected to outfox the Royals batters by making the most of the scoreboard pressure as he can do some damage in early or middle overs.
