Sri Lanka will be without its premier T20 bowler Wanindu Hasaranga, who was ruled out of the rest of the tournament after suffering a hamstring injury during the home team’s win over Ireland in the opening group game.
Oman is at the bottom of the table after a heavy loss to Zimbabwe but captain Jatinder Singh said “one game doesn’t define” how his team plays in the tournament.
“Hardly anything to pick from the first game,” Singh said at the toss. “We don’t get opportunity to play with test-playing nations, so this is a golden opportunity.”
