Match 34 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024, will feature Namibia taking on England (NAM vs ENG) at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua, on June 15 at 10:30 PM IST.
Match 17 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 features a highly anticipated clash between Australia and England at the iconic Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados. Both teams have played one match each in the tournament so far. Australia sit second on the points table, while England are currently ranked fourth. This match is crucial for both teams as they aim to strengthen their positions in the standings and build momentum in the tournament.
A win over Oman has kept England within touching distance of a place in the Super 8 stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup. England desperately needed two points to keep themselves afloat having registered just one point from their first two games. They had lost to Australia while their game against Scotland was washed out due to rain. However, the defending champions bounced back with a dominant 8-wicket victory over Oman at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua. England ripped through Oman, bowling them out for 47 and chasing it down in 3.1 overs.
Captain Jos Buttler declared "job done" as England got their T20 World Cup title defence back on track with a thumping with a thumping eight-wicket win over Oman.
After beating Oman by eight wickets in the T20 World Cup 2024 match at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, England skipper Jos Buttler credited his bowlers for setting the tone of the game. England restricted Oman to just 47 runs and chased down the target in only 3.1 overs, displaying one of the most dominating performances in the tournament so far. Speaking after the match, he showered praise on the bowlers, adding there was some extra bounce at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
After his side's eight-wicket win over Oman in the T20 World Cup 2024 clash, England spinner Adil Rashid said that they have 'bowled exceptionally well'. Rashid was named the 'Player of the Match' after he picked up four wickets and gave just 11 runs in his four-over spell at an economy rate of 2.80. Speaking after the match, Rashid said that getting a wicket in the initial stage of the first inning helped them to set the tone. "Thought we bowled exceptionally well. Felt good to see that first ball turn so much. Obviously getting a wicket first ball sets the tone as well. I tried to adjust in the first over or so. It was spinning quite a bit so it was hard to keep it in the wickets, that meant I had to bowl outside leg a little bit," Rashid said.
Oman skipper Aqib Ilyas said that they failed to bat well against England at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. Oman conceded an eight-wicket defeat against England in the T20 World Cup 2024 match. Speaking after the match, Aqib said that the top order failed to score runs throughout the T20 World Cup 2024. He added that the batters faced difficulty while facing bowlers bowling at 150 . "We couldn't do well with the bat. Top order couldn't score runs throughout the tournament. It was good exposure but there wasn't much we could do. With no runs on the board, the bowlers didn't have a chance. We're used to playing bowlers that bowl in the 130-140kph range in associate cricket. So it's difficult when once in a year you play against bowlers bowling 150, there is something in your mind. It's a different thing when you're used to playing such bowlers," Aqib said.
England hammered Oman by eight wickets as the reigning champions revived their T20 World Cup campaign with a record-breaking win in Antigua on Thursday. Needing a heavy victory to bolster their net run-rate as they attempt to overhaul Scotland in the race to qualify for the second round, England routed Oman for just 47. England then made 50-2 in a mere 3.1 overs, captain Jos Buttler 24 not out and Jonny Bairstow, who hit the winning boundary, unbeaten on eight.
