Oman vs nepal

By Ananya Rao / 29.04.2026

Jatinder Singh’s century has put Oman in a commanding position against Nepal in a crucial ICC CWC League 2 match at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur. Singh scored 130 runs, helping Oman post a total of around 296–301 for 7–8 in nearly 50 overs.

Key statistics:

• Oman won the toss and opted to bat first.
• Oman had a 50+ opening partnership within the first 10 overs.
• Nepal’s bowlers managed to restrict Oman below 300 despite a strong start.
• Oman scored 70 runs in the last 10 overs but lost wickets in the process.

The story so far belongs to Jatinder Singh, whose century has shaped the contest and put Oman in a strong position. Oman entered this match sitting third in the standings with 29 points, while Nepal is positioned seventh with just 14 points.

Nepal previously defeated Oman by 38 runs in a T20 encounter. Chasing approximately 300, Nepal must adopt a calculated approach. They need a strong start in the powerplay without losing early wickets.

While Nepal partially succeeded in restricting the total below 300, their inability to remove Jatinder earlier proved costly. Observers expect that if Oman can consolidate their lead, they will strengthen their position near the top of the league standings.
