TEAMS PREVIEW
Qatar Preview
Qatar head into their clash against Myanmar with a win and a defeat from their opening two games of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Sub Regional Qualifier A 2026. They started their campaign with a 58-run defeat against Kuwait after conceding 199/7. Qatar fought back with 141/8 but were unable to keep pace with the asking rate.
They responded strongly against Thailand in their second game. After restricting Thailand to 76/9, Qatar chased down the target in just 12.3 overs, winning by seven wickets. Zeeshan Haider was the standout performer with an unbeaten 47 off 41 balls, guiding the chase alongside Imal Liyanage.
Zeeshan has been Qatar’s leading run-scorer in the competition so far, accumulating 61 runs in two innings, including his unbeaten 47 against Thailand. Imal Liyanage has also made a useful contribution with 51 runs in two innings, while Muhammad Asim has added 36 runs.
With the ball, Shariq Munir has been one of Qatar’s most reliable performers. He has claimed three wickets in two matches, including an impressive 2/8 against Thailand. His ability to keep the scoring under control could be particularly important against a Myanmar batting unit that has struggled to score freely.
Qatar also have plenty of experience in their ranks. Shariq enjoyed an excellent five-match T20I series against Bahrain earlier this year, finishing with eight wickets, while Muhammad Asim scored 151 runs in the same series.
Qatar Predicted Playing XI:
Daniel Louis, Imal Liyanage(w), Shahzaib Jamil, Shariq Munir, Zeeshan Haider, Zubair Ali, Muhammad Asim, Mohammad Ikramullah Khan, Mujeeb ur Rehman, Mirza Mohammed Baig(c), Owais Ahmed

Myanmar Preview
Myanmar are still searching for their first win of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Sub Regional Qualifier A 2026 after suffering defeats in their opening two matches. They started their campaign against Bhutan, posting 92/9 after Bhutan had scored 119/8. Myanmar were unable to build substantial partnerships and eventually fell 27 runs short.
Their second assignment against Bahrain produced a similar result. Myanmar were restricted to just 70/9 in 20 overs, before Bahrain chased down the target in only 11.2 overs to complete an eight-wicket victory. The Myanmar batting order struggled throughout the innings, with Pyae Phyo Wai top-scoring with 23 off 41 balls and Ko Ko Lin Thu contributing 17 off 19.
Pyae Phyo Wai has been one of Myanmar’s important players in the recent T20I cycle. He scored 23 against Bahrain and also provided an all-round option with the ball. Ko Ko Lin Thu, the captain, is another key figure and has previously been Myanmar’s leading contributor with both bat and ball. In the latest statistical period, he scored 189 T20I runs and took 11 wickets, highlighting his value to the side.
Paing Danu is another player Myanmar will rely on. He produced their best bowling performance in the tournament so far, taking 3/23 against Bhutan, and also scored 16 in that match. He has been Myanmar’s leading run-scorer in the available 2026 team statistics, with 38 runs, while Khin Aye has contributed 30.
The bowling attack has shown some encouraging moments despite the two defeats. Paing Danu's three-wicket haul against Bhutan was the standout spell, while Kaung Htet Kyaw took wickets in both matches and provided another option with the ball. Against Bahrain, he finished with 1/24 from four overs and also played a role in restricting the opposition early.
Myanmar now face Qatar with their batting department under pressure. They have managed only 162 runs across their first two innings, while neither total has reached 100. They will need considerably more from their top and middle order if they are to challenge Qatar, while Paing Danu and Ko Ko Lin Thu will be central to their hopes of making an impact with the ball.
Myanmar Predicted Playing XI:
Htet Lin Oo, Paing Danu, Ko Ko Lin Thu(c), Pyae Phyo Wai, Khin Aye, Sai Hla Htwe, Nay Lin Htun, Nyein Cham Soe, Aung Ko Ko, Kyaw Zin Lin(w), Kaung Htet Kyaw
