Oman and Nepal became the 18th and 19th teams to secure their spots in the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup on Wednesday. Currently atop the standings of the Super 6 stage in the T20 World Cup Asia-EAP Regional final held in Muscat, the rising Asian teams secured their qualification after the United Arab Emirates hammered Samoa by 77 runs to better their command over the third qualifying spot in the qualifier standings.

Having featured at last year’s  T20 World Cup in the USA and the Caribbean, Oman arrived in the Qualifiers as one of the favourites to progress through. Three of the six teams are slated to progress to the marquee 20-team World Cup, slated to be held between February 6 and March 7 in India and Sri Lanka.
