Hello and welcome to the live coverage of Match 7 of the ICC World T20.
It is a Group A clash between Oman and Netherlands and the venue for this game is Himachal Pradesh CA Stadium, Dharamsala.
Oman registered a thrilling 2 wicket win against Ireland in the first match and their confidence will be quite high. A win in this match will put them in a good position to qualify for the Super 10.
Netherlands lost their opening match against Bangladesh by 8 runs and they will be keen to put that disappointment behind and bounce back with a win.
