"The top order failed to score runs throughout the tournament" - Oman captain Aqib Ilyas after loss vs England in 2024 T20 World Cup

At the post-match presentation, Oman skipper Aqib Ilyas reviewed his team's performance in the tournament, saying:

"Nothing much to say. We couldn't do well with the batting. The top order failed to score runs throughout the tournament. With 40 runs on the board, bowlers can't do much. We don't play 140+ bowlers everyday. There aren't too many bowlers who can bowl at that pace in the associate teams. Once in a while, you come up against a side like that, it is tough."

He continued:

"The balls were in good areas and their fielders were on their toes. The batters were under pressure because they didn't have runs on the board. Bad shot selection hurt us. If we had finished the last match on a high we would have been happier. But overall, it has been good interacting with the top players. We have done well in the associate world. Hopefully, this exposure will make us better."

Oman ended their 2024 T20 World Cup campaign without a win after playing four games in Group B.

England will face Namibia on Saturday, June 15, at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua.
