SL vs OMN Dream11 Prediction: Dream11 Team Today, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Injury Update - ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, 16th Match

Sri Lanka won their first match against Ireland by 20 runs. However, they have received a big setback because their main spinner, Wanindu Hasaranga, is out due to a hamstring injury. Dushan Hemantha has replaced him in the squad. On the other hand, this is Oman’s fourth time playing in a T20 World Cup. They want to make a strong comeback after losing their last match to Zimbabwe by 8 wickets.
Kusal Mendis is the top captain pick for SL vs OMN Dream11 team prediction because he was the backbone of Sri Lanka’s batting against Ireland, where he scored 56 off 43 balls*. And with Wanindu Hasaranga out, Theekshana becomes the primary threat for Oman. He took 3/23 against Ireland and will be lethal against an Oman batting lineup.
