Nepal vs Oman Head to Head: Matches, Stats and Players

Nepal vs Oman Head to Head by Format

The ODIs have swung back and forth. Oman won the first, by 8 wickets at Kirtipur on 9 Feb 2020, and had a 6 to 5 edge across the 11 played. Their most recent win was a 102-run DLS result at Kirtipur on 29 Apr 2026, when Jatinder Singh (Oman) made 130 off 96 balls. Nepal answered with an 81-run win at the same ground on 5 May 2026 and then bowled Oman out for 60 in Kuala Lumpur on 10 Sep 2026, winning by 87 runs, their biggest ODI margin in the fixture.

T20Is have been mostly Nepal’s. Oman won the first meeting on 10 Oct 2019, dismissing Nepal for 64 with Aamir Kaleem (Oman) taking 5/15. Since then Nepal have won 7 of 9, and Oman’s only successes in that spell came at Kirtipur in Nov 2023: a 5-run win and the super over. Nepal’s latest T20I win, by 8 wickets in Singapore on 7 Jun 2026, came after Oman were all out for 94.

Players Who Lead the Lists

Karan KC (Nepal) is the standout bowler. Karan has 26 ODI scalps against Oman at 16.46, two of those innings bringing five or more, and he has 13 more in T20Is. Nobody has won more match awards in the fixture than his 3. Sandeep Lamichhane (Nepal) is the T20I leader with 17 wickets, each costing 11.94, and has 19 more in ODIs. Gulsan Jha (Nepal) has taken two ODI five-fors in just 3 games.

Oman’s batting has been led by Jatinder Singh, the top ODI run scorer with 404 and the only player with two hundreds against Nepal. Zeeshan Maqsood (Oman) averages 57.80 in ODIs. For Nepal, Aasif Sheikh has 327 ODI runs and K Bhurtel (Nepal) leads the T20I list with 237. DS Airee (Nepal) holds the top T20I score, 73 not out at Al Amarat.

T20I totals have been modest, the side batting first averaging 131. In ODIs the first-innings average is 216, and sides batting first lead the chasers 6 wins to 5.

Home and Away: A Strange Pattern

Neither side has made the most of home conditions. At Tribhuvan University ground in Kirtipur, Nepal’s home venue and the most used ground with 7 matches, Oman have 4 wins to Nepal’s 2, plus the tie. At Al Amarat’s Ministry Turf 1 in Oman, it is Nepal who lead 4 to 2. Neutral venues in the USA, Canada, Singapore and Malaysia have mostly gone Nepal’s way.

The toss has not helped much either: in T20Is the winner of the toss has won only 3 of 9 decided games.
