Emirates Cricket Board have announced the teams that will compete in the 3-series campaign to be played in Oman in February.
The UAE’s playing calendar stretches from February 5-24 and will see them compete in the rescheduled CWC League 2 against Oman, a T20I Quadrangular series that brings together Oman, Nepal, Ireland and the UAE, and the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup (2022) Qualifier A.
The UAE currently sits 15th on the T20I table and 17th in ODI.
The pinnacle of their campaign is undoubtedly securing the win in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Qualifier A and subsequently the spot to compete in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia later this year.
The UAE have been drawn into Group B alongside Bahrain, Germany, and Ireland.
"Emirates Cricket Board is very pleased that our Men’s team can resume their journey towards the ICC T20 Men’s WC qualifier," said Dr. Tayeb Kamali, Selection Committee Chairman, Emirates Cricket.
"We enjoy a proven, strong history in both 50-over and 20-over formats and we anticipate yet another exciting series of cricket. With the historic plate-win in the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup, our young players have demonstrated the immense value of their preparation while continuing to take necessary precautions due to the pandemic."
