Haris Leads Pakistan Batting in Pakistan vs Oman Asia Cup 2025
Early setbacks saw Saim Ayub dismissed cheaply, while Sahibzada Farhan struggled for fluency. Pakistan’s innings appeared shaky at 31 for 1 after five overs. However, Mohammad Haris turned the momentum with a counter-attacking 66 off 43 balls. His innings included powerful sixes and timely boundaries that lifted Pakistan’s run rate during the middle overs.
Although Oman’s Aamir Kaleem and Faisal Khan picked up three wickets each, the late cameo from Mohammad Nawaz ensured Pakistan reached 160. Haris’ fifty stood out as the defining knock in the Pakistan vs Oman game, providing Pakistan with a total that proved more than enough.
Pakistan Spinners Dominate Oman Batting
The chase by Oman started with some promise, reaching 32 for 2 in the fifth over. Yet, once Pakistan introduced their spinners, the contest shifted completely. Saim Ayub’s double strike inside the powerplay put Oman under pressure. Soon after, wristspinners Sufiyan Muqeem and Abrar Ahmed, along with Mohammad Nawaz, dismantled the batting order.
Oman collapsed from 41 for 2 to 51 for 9 in a dramatic passage. The Pakistan spinners not only restricted runs but also shared wickets effectively. Muqeem’s figures of 2 for 7 and Ashraf’s economical spell left Oman no chance of recovery. Eventually, the innings folded for just 67, handing Pakistan a massive win.
Mohammad Haris on fire! 🔥
