United Arab Emirates (UAE) will go against Oman (OMA) in Match 7 of the Asia Cup 2025 on Monday, September 15, at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. This is an important match for both teams as they look to comeback after a disappointing start. UAE lost badly to India in their first clash and Oman also lost to Pakistan. With both teams looking to return to form and without a win, it is an important game at this early stage in Group A.

The Emiratis will be hoping captain Muhammad Waseem can fire at the top of the batting order and that their bowling, led by Junaid Siddique, can exert pressure in the middle overs. Oman will look to experienced campaigner Jatinder Singh and all-rounder Mohammad Nadeem to lead them to their first points. With both teams having well-balanced teams, this could prove to be a competitive contest.

Group B

Bangladesh (BAN) faces Sri Lanka (SL) in match 5 of the Asia Cup 2025 on Saturday, September 13 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. This contest is very important to both teams as they try to further their chances of moving forward in the tournament. The Bangla Tigers are coming off a very impressive run of results, having won a series against Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and The Netherlands prior to the Asia Cup. They came into this match with momentum, having defeated Hong Kong by seven wickets in their opening game while chasing down a target of 144 within 17 overs. 

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, are coming off a disappointing series loss to Bangladesh in July, but they managed to bounce back earlier in September with the 2-1 victory over Zimbabwe in Harare. Inconsistency has been their biggest issue to date under skipper Charith Asalanka. The islanders will be depending heavily on the spin brothers Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana to keep the opposition down, while top-order batters Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis will need to provide a baseline for them in this match, which can prove to be pivotal in the tournament.

After completion of four matches, two from each group, the points table stands as follows:

Group A

Group B

The West Delhi Lions produced a marvelous all-round performance against the Central Delhi Kings in the DPL 2025 Final at Arun Jaitley Stadium. West Delhi Lions chased down a target of 174 after Captain Nitish Rana came out with the bat and smashed a sensational 79 (49)** to lead the way, before being supported by a blitz of 42 off 27 balls from Hrithik Shokeen. While Pranshu Vijayran's fireworks late in the innings kept CDK competitive, the final score of 173/7 was not enough. The bowling unit for Lions applied the pressure after each of the quick blows allowed them to settle in; however, they bowled well in terms of miserly economy (notably Shivank Vashisht with his 2/12). After 18 overs, the Lions chased it down, by a margin of 6 wickets, to win the DPL 2025 Final Trophy.
