Expert Advice:
The Oman skipper Zeeshan Maqsood didn’t feature in the first match against the Maldives. There is no update on why he was not picked in the XI. Since there is no update over his fitness, we expect him to play the game on Monday. On the other hand, Qatar has left out Nouman Sarwar and a couple of senior players from their XI since the start of Uganda series. Hence, we are not expecting him to be picked in the game against Oman.
Probable Winners:
Oman is more experienced and capable than in Qatar. The home advantage could also help Oman in winning this fixture.
