Oman Women vs Kuwait Women, 12th Match

The Oman Women and Kuwait Women face off in the 12th match of the GCC Women's T20I Championship 2025 at Al Amerat Cricket Ground. Oman Women enter the contest with a relatively stable form, showing improvement with their batting depth and strategic bowling changes. Their recent matches have seen standout performances from their top-order batsmen and a few economical spells from their medium pacers. Kuwait Women, on the other hand, have demonstrated sporadic brilliance, especially with the bat, but their bowling attack has struggled to contain runs consistently. Historically, both teams have met twice, with Oman winning once and the other match ending without a result. The key to Oman’s success lies in their discipline in the middle overs and capitalizing on fielding moments. Kuwait will look to exploit the powerplay and seek early breakthroughs with their pace attack. The strategic approach for Oman would be to build partnerships and use spin wisely during middle overs, especially on a pitch that offers some assistance. Kuwait’s best chance is aggressive batting upfront and tightening lines in death overs.

Their ability to rotate strike and accelerate in the final overs should reflect in a solid score. If Kuwait Women get to bat first, scoring around 135-145 runs is a realistic target considering their aggressive approach but occasional middle-over collapses. They might find the pitch challenging against disciplined bowling, restricting them to a moderate total.
