OMA vs SL 2nd T20 Predictions & Betting Tips

Sri Lanka will play their final international game before the formal proceedings of the T20 World Cup begin, against Oman at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1) in Oman on Saturday, the 9th of October. The islanders are next scheduled to play Namibia straight away in Pool A of the first round, since no warm-up matches have been scheduled for those participating in the qualifying stage. Here, I have collated the three best T20I series betting tips for you from the OMA vs SL match prediction.

Sri Lanka’s final opportunity to familiarize themselves with the condition awaits them in the form of this upcoming game, before they head to neighbouring UAE where the World T20 matches are scheduled to be held. The team has been drawn in a pool with Namibia, Ireland and Netherlands, with the top two teams after a single round robin phase to qualify for the Super 12 stage of the competition. Oman, similarly, are racking up their preparation as well, with the privilege of playing their qualifying games against Scotland, Bangladesh and Papua New Guinea at home itself. Even though they are the underdogs, Oman will be hoping to make full use of their knowledge of home soil and upset a team or two. Nevertheless, an enthralling fixture awaits for now and on that note, here are my three best betting tips from the OMA vs SL match prediction.

OMA vs SL Player Bets:

It's practically impossible to gauge áspects such as the boundary hitting prowess of the two teams, due to the vast disparity in the strength of the teams they usually face. Even so, individual talent is more often than note highly reliable regardless of circumstance and after going through all available options, I have found just the perfect tips for you. Here are my carefully selected OMA vs SL team bets.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa to score under 16.5

An aggressive batsman at the top of the order, Bhanuka Rajapaksa has been struggling with the bat for quite a long time now. Even though he has 165 runs from 10 T20Is at a decent average of 20.62, 112 of those came in his debut series versus Pakistan in 2019. Since, the left-hander has scored just 53 runs in seven matches at a pitiful average of 10.6. This year, he was fielded for the three-match series against South Africa, where he returned scores of 0, 20 and 5. The duck was in fact his third straight in international games, having got out on nought on both of his ODIs against the Proteas. Across his last 10 innings overall, Rajapaksa has just 137 runs to his name at an average of 13.7, with four ducks and only three scores above the required mark. Even in the first T20 against Oman, he could only manage 15 before throwing away his wicket. Thus, you can confidently bet on Bhanuka Rajapaksa scoring under 16.5 runs. You can capitalize on this OMA vs SL player bet at Dafabet who have offered typically fantastic odds of 1.87.

Avishka Fernando to score over 20.5

The attacking opener has had an underwhelming international career so far, but of late has produced some great performances. In the SLC Invitational T20 League held earlier in the year, Avishka Fernando racked up 154 runs against Sri Lanka’s best bowlers at an amazing average of 30.80. In the very first international match following the tournament, the 23-year-old struck a phenomenal 118 against the Proteas a little over a month ago. Even though he encountered a brief lull thereafter, Fernando returned to his flamboyant best in the first T20 against Oman. Coming in at 7-2, the right-hander stormed his way to a brilliant unbeaten 83 off just 59 balls, smashing three fours and five maximums in the process. Thus, with various great performances in the season, I pick Avishka Fernando to score over 20.5 runs in today’s OMA vs SL match prediction. You can take up this player bet tip at Dafabet considering they have offered lucrative odds of 1.87.

Dinesh Chandimal to score over 22.5

Dinesh Chandimal has had a second coming in Sri Lanka’s white ball setup, and boy has he grabbed onto his chances. The ex-skipper has played six T20Is in 2021, racking up 139 runs at a brilliant average of 34.75. Prior to it, he had taken part in the Sri Lanka Cricket Invitational T20, where he tallied 183 runs in just six innings averaging a whopping 36.60. Even though the 31-year-old has only been fielded in 13 T20I innings since 2018, Chandimal has delivered sufficiently with a great average of 31.5. His best display in 2021 came last month itself, stroking his way to a flamboyant 66*(54)against South Africa in the final T20I. With almost 9,000 international runs in his kitty, Dinesh Chandimal is one of the country’s greatest batsmen of recent times and is in red-hot form. Despite his failure in the last match, Chandimal’s consistency is bound to shine through and I pick him to easily score over 22.5 runs.
