Gulf T20I Championship – A First for the Gulf Nations

The Gulf T20I Championship  was the first-ever T20 International competition to bring together cricket-playing nations from the Gulf region. Organized under the sanction of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), the tournament featured UAE, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain competing for regional dominance.

Played in Oman, the event showcased the incredible progress made by the Gulf nations in cricket. Matches were competitive, stadiums were buzzing, and the tournament provided a strong platform for local players to shine at an international level.
