Highlights | SL vs Oman, Cricket Live Score & Updates for the ICC World Cup Qualifier: Sri Lanka Beat Oman

 In their first international cricket match, Sri Lanka defeated Oman with ease. Sri Lanka won the decision to bowl first and ruled the game after the powerplay. Three important batters were dismissed by fast bowler Kumara, who also displayed a critical role, while Rajitha put up a steady effort.

When Shanaka was bowling, Coach Chris Silverwood, who was watching from the sidelines, repeatedly yelled for the leg-spinner to be brought in. Despite the skipper delaying the action for a few overs, Hasaranga nevertheless had the predicted huge impact. In his first two overs, he got three wickets, absolutely crushing Oman's spirits. Oman scored close to 100 runs but was unable to overcome Ayaan Khan's resistance.

Karunaratne and Nissanka had an easy time chasing the score and securing a convincing 10-wicket victory since the ground had already grown more conducive to batting during Oman's innings. Sri Lanka had defeated UAE handily, and this victory will raise their net run rate (NRR) even further.
