Al Amerat Cricket Stadium Oman T20 statistics and records includes highest and lowest scores at this stadium, top score by a batsman, best bowling figures, highest successful run chase and average T20 scores at the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium in Oman.
T20 head to head generally only includes T20 matches played by Test playing nations as well as the top T20 franchise leagues around the world. However, in light of the fact that the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium in Oman has recently been awarded Test status and will cover games in the early part of the 2021 T20 World Cup, we have decided to make an exception and include T20 matches played at the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium in Oman which involved teams who are both associate ICC members with ODI status.
The Al Amerat Cricket Stadium complex incompasses 2 grounds commonly referred to as turf 1 and turf 2. Turf 1 is the superior playing surface and as a result of the decision to host part of the T20 World Cup in Oman, the turf 1 venue has been expanded to a 4000 seater capacity as well as having permanent flood lights installed. The T20 matches played in Oman that featured associate members with ODI status have taken place on turf 1 and as such the below records feature only matches played there.
The Al Amerat Cricket Stadium is due to host 6 matches in the 2021 T20 World Cup all of which will be contended by sides in Group B of the initial qualifying round of the tournament featuring home team Oman, Bangladesh, Scotland and Papa New Guinea.

Pitch Report for the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium
The pitch at the Al Amerat Stadium is generally a good one for batting although when playing on a used pitch scoring can become increasingly difficult as was evident in the Oman Pentangular Series staged at this venue in the autumn of 2019 when the scoring dropped significantly as the tournament progressed.
In the early games of T20 played in Oman the Al Amerat Stadium offered a clear advantage for sides chasing with five of the six games during the quadrangular tournament featuring Oman, Scotland, Ireland and the Netherland that took place in early 2019 ending with the side batting second winning. Since then the pitches in Oman have offered more even T20 contests but the preference is generally to chase at the Al Amerat Stadium.
