Scotland beat Oman by seven wickets

On the other hand, Oman became the first team to be officially knocked out of the tournament with three losses in as many as games

Brandon McMullen’s unbeaten 61 and George Munsey’s 41 steered Scotland to a seven-wicket win over Oman in the T20 World Cup Group B match here at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium late on Sunday night.

Opting to bat, Oman posted 150-7, thanks to Pratik Athavale’s 54 off 40 balls, laced with five fours and two sixes. In reply, McMullen and Munsey led Richie Berrington’s side to 153-3 within 14 overs to seal victory.

The win means Scotland still have hope of reaching the Super Eight as they jump to the top of Group B after a win against Namibia and an abandoned match against England in their two previous matches.

On the other hand, Oman became the first team to be officially knocked out of the tournament with three losses in as many as games.
