Oman vs Netherlands meet today, Monday 2 November 2026, in an ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 one-day international in Dubai.

The Dubai tri-series match also involves the United Arab Emirates, and it carries points towards the 2027 ODI World Cup Qualifier.

They met at the same venue less than a week ago, and that recent result shapes today's rematch.

Oman vs Netherlands: Match Details Today

The match is being played at the ICC Academy Ground in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

It started at 10:30 AM Pakistan time, which is 9:30 AM Dubai local time and 11:00 AM Indian time. The format is a 50-over one-day international.

Jatinder Singh is leading Oman, while Bas de Leede is captaining the Netherlands.

The fixture is a late match in the League 2 cycle, which runs from February 2024 to November 2026. With the cycle nearing its end, every remaining point matters.

League 2 is the official pathway to the 2027 World Cup Qualifier, and the top four teams at the end of the cycle advance to that Qualifier.

Points Table: What Is at Stake

The Netherlands sit third in the League 2 standings with 42 points from 35 matches.

They have won 19 matches, lost 12 and had four no-results, and their place in the next round is already secured.

Oman hold fourth place with 33 points from 34 matches, from 15 wins, 16 losses and three no-results.

That fourth spot is the last qualifying place, which makes today's match far more important for Oman than for the Netherlands.

A win for Oman would strengthen their hold on fourth place at a crucial stage of the cycle. A defeat would leave the door open for the teams chasing them.

Net run rate could still matter if teams finish level on points, and Oman currently sit on a negative net run rate. That makes a clear win more valuable than a narrow one.

Last Meeting: Netherlands Won by 106 Runs

The two teams met at the same ICC Academy Ground on Tuesday 27 October 2026.

The Netherlands batted first and posted 371 for 5 from their 50 overs. Bas de Leede led the way with 145 runs from 110 balls.

Cedric de Lange supported him with 102 runs from 91 balls, and the pair built the platform for a huge total.

Oman were bowled out for 265 in 49.3 overs in reply, despite 77 runs from 46 balls by Zikria Islam.

The Netherlands won by 106 runs, and Bas de Leede was named player of the match.

That result explains why Oman will be keen to respond today, because a repeat would damage their qualifying position.

Chasing or setting a total near 370 at this venue demands a near-perfect batting display.

Players to Watch in Dubai

Max O'Dowd is the Netherlands opener to watch. He is the team's leading run scorer in the League 2 cycle, with more than 1,200 runs to his name.

His form in Dubai has been strong, with two recent centuries, and his starts set the tone for the Dutch innings.

Bas de Leede captains the side, bats in the middle order and bowls, and his 145 against Oman last week showed his ability to take a match away.

For Oman, Jatinder Singh carries the batting hopes. He is Oman's leading run scorer in the cycle, with more than 1,000 runs.

Zikria Islam is another Oman batter in form after his 77 against the Netherlands in the last meeting. If Oman are to post or chase a big total, they need their senior batters to bat deep.

Pitch and Weather in Dubai

The ICC Academy Ground has produced high scores in this series, as the 371 posted by the Netherlands last week shows.

Batters who settle in have scored quickly here, which puts pressure on bowlers to take middle-over wickets.

The weather forecast for match day in Dubai was sunny, with temperatures around 31 degrees Celsius.

There is no rain threat in that forecast, so fans should get a full 50-over contest, with the result decided on the field rather than by the weather.
