UAE Playing 11 vs Oman- Asia Cup 2025, Match 7:

Openers: Muhammad Waseem (c), Alishan Sharafu

UAE would eye a strong comeback after facing a humiliating defeat against India in their opening match of the Asia Cup 2025, where the Muhammad Waseem-led side was bowled out for just 57 runs.

The team would like to put on a much-improved performance with the bat in the upcoming match against Oman, as compared to how they fared against a much superior team in the form of India.

The team management and players will look up to Muhammad Waseem to lead from the front, something which he failed to do in the previous match, being the opening batter and captain of the team.

If Waseem gets going, it will increase the UAE's chances of getting things in place as far as the batting side of things is concerned.

Waseem would expect to get good support from his opening partner, Alishan Sharafu, who was one of the few batters who got some runs under his belt and would wish to prolong that against Oman.

Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Muhammad Zohaib, Rahul Chopra (wk), Asif Khan, Harshit Kaushik, Dhruv Parashar

The openers will be followed by a middle order that was blown away by the Indian bowlers like nine pins

The likes of Muhammad Zohaib, Rahul Chopra, Asif Khan, Harshit Kaushik, and Dhruv Parashar would be aware of the sorry state of affairs as far as the United Arab Emirates' batting lineup is concerned and would want to sort things out.

The middle order can take confidence from the fact that they were able to string a few good performances with the bat in the tri series that preceded the Asia Cup, and would look to replicate the same in the next game.

The role of the UAE's top five batters would be crucial in ensuring that the collapse the team went through in the last match is not repeated.

Bowlers: Haider Ali, Muhammad Rohid Khan, Junaid Siddique, Simranjeet Singh

As far as the United Arab Emirates' bowling is concerned, it will rely on its spinners to get the job of picking wickets for the team done and restrict the opposition to a below-par total while bowling first.

In that regard, the trio of Dhruv Parashar, Haider Ali, and Simarjeet Singh will play a major role as they are capable of picking wickets at regular intervals for the team.

If we talk about the UAE's fast bowling arsenal, it comprises Junaid Siddique and Mohammad Rohid Khan, both of whom will look to pick wickets in the first six overs.

The United Arab Emirates will step on the field to face Oman at the Sheikh Zyed Stadium with five bowlers, including two pacers and three spinners, which provides them balance and makes their bowling lineup look strong for this particular game.
