Oman won against UAE by five wickets in World Cup Qualifier
Nadeem Khan scored an unbeaten 30 runs under pressure
UAE's innings ended at 112 runs in 20 overs
Oman sealed a nervy five-wicket win over the United Arab Emirates in the fourth Super Six match of the ICC Men’s World Cup East Asia Pacific Qualifier 2025 at Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1) on Monday, October 13.
Being sent to bat second by the UAE, Oman waited until the final over to chase down a modest total of 113. However, a superb 30-run knock from Nadeem Khan took them over the line with five wickets in hand and two balls to spare.
Earlier, batting first, UAE’s top order faltered, with Jonathan Figy being dismissed for a golden duck. Captain Muhammad Waseem offered resistance with 22 off 35, and Muhammad Arfan steered a brief revival with 17 off 15.
However, wickets continued to fall consistently; Alishan Sharafu fell to Shakeel Ahmed, and Rahul Chopra edged Nadeem Khan’s crafty delivery. Two run-outs did not help the batting side, and they folded at 112/7 in their 20 overs.
In response, Oman also lost early wickets. Captain Jatinder Singh and Aamir Kaleem started well, but the latter got dismissed with the partnership at 43. Oman lost four more wickets for 36 runs. Harshit Kaushik was the star, taking a wicket and conceding just 15 runs in his four overs.
With the lower order reeling, Nadeem Khan smashed an unbeaten 30 runs off 16 balls, hitting two boundaries and three sixes under immense pressure to seal the win for Oman.
