**Muscat, Oman:** The Oman cricket team will face off against the Netherlands in the 45th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 on Tuesday, November 5th at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground in Muscat. The match is crucial for both teams, as they fight for a spot in the qualifiers for the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.

The Netherlands, currently ranked fourth in the table, are in a precarious position. A loss against Oman could put them in jeopardy, while a further slip-up would jeopardize their chances of qualifying for the World Cup. Oman, ranked sixth, need consistent wins to climb into the top four.
Oman won the toss and opted to field first. The match will be streamed live on the FanCode app and website.
**The top four teams from the League 2 competition will advance to the qualifiers, which will determine the final teams for the 2027 World Cup to be held in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.**
