Zimbabwe Ease Past Oman with Confident Chase in 13.3 Overs

In the Zimbabwe vs Oman match, Zimbabwe completed a comfortable chase, reaching 106 for 2 in just 13.3 overs to seal a convincing victory. Chasing a modest target of 104, the Zimbabwean batters showed composure and intent, ensuring there were no late stumbles.

Brian Bennett played a key role at the top of the order, remaining unbeaten on 48 from 36 deliveries, striking seven boundaries to keep the scoreboard moving. Tadiwanashe Marumani provided early momentum with a brisk 21 off 11 balls before falling in the powerplay, while Dion Myers departed soon after without scoring.

Veteran Brendan Taylor steadied the innings alongside Bennett, contributing a fluent 31 before retiring hurt at 98 for 2. Captain Sikandar Raza then finished the chase in style with a quick cameo, as Zimbabwe crossed the target with more than six overs to spare.

Earlier in the match, Blessing Muzarabani starred with the ball, claiming 3 for 16 to dismantle Oman’s batting lineup. His impactful spell highlighted Zimbabwe’s all-round dominance in the contest.
