Dubai International Cricket Stadium: Pakistan have won the toss and opted to bat against Oman in their Group A opening match of the Asia Cup at Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday.
Pakistan captain Salman Agha backed his side’s combination to post an “above par total” while batting first.
“We are going to bat first. It looks like a good pitch and we want to put the scoreboard pressure. We have been playing good cricket for the last 2-3 months, we have been playing together from February, and the team is coming together, we want to continue that. We have three proper spinners and three all-rounders. When we bat first we want to put above par totals and when bowling first we want to restrict the opposition to chaseable totals,” he said the toss.
