United Arab Emirates Biography

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) had made their presence felt in world cricket since the 1990s when Sharjah had started hosting cricket matches involving teams around the world, especially India and Pakistan.

As for playing the sport, UAE is an Associate member of ICC. They have played in only one World Cup 1996, where they managed to beat the Netherlands. The closest they have come to playing in another World Cup ever since was in 2011, but they lost to Scotland in their last match of the ICC World Cup Qualifier in 2009. This also denied them One-Day International (ODI) status.

They have played in Asia Cups 2004 and 2008, and have also played in the Austral-Asia Cup when it was in vogue. UAE have played in the ICC World Cricket League, ICC Intercontinental Cup and various ACC tournaments, but more importantly, they have qualified for the ICC World Cup 2015. They did so by finishing second in the ICC World Cup Qualifier 2014. This has given them ODI status till 2018.
