A team that is packed to the brims with world class talents like Mitchell Marsh, Travis Head, Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, only to name a few, it will be hard to bet against an Australia side in an ICC event. There’s also the small matter of this being David Warner’s last international tournament before he calls it a day and he’ll be looking to go out with a bang. Oman, meanwhile, are coming off a thrilling match against Namibia where they lost after a Super Over. With their bowlers on song, Oman will look for their batters to put on a better show if they want to have a chance against Australia.
On Wednesday night, India began their campaign with a comfortable win. Read more about that here.
