Oman and UAE match is scheduled for February 22 at Fatullah which will be a decider match who will later go to play against India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh or Pakistan. Oman and UAE have come in face to face last year with one match draw played at UAE on November 2015, while second match was played at Abu Dhabi and UAE won by 7 wickets.
