England thrash Oman by 8 wickets to revive T20 World Cup campaign

England revived their T20 World Cup campaign with a record-breaking victory over Oman by eight wickets in Antigua on Thursday. The reigning champions needed a significant win to improve their net run-rate (NRR) as they strive to surpass Scotland and qualify for the second-round Super Eights. Oman was dismissed for a mere 47 runs, unable to cope with England's combination of spin and pace. Leg-break bowler Adil Rashid took 4-11 from his four overs, while fast bowlers Jofra Archer and Mark Wood both had figures of 3-12.
