The 2019–20 Oman Pentangular Series was a Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket tournament, that was held in Oman in October 2019.[1] Originally scheduled to be played between four teams, it was increased to five.[2][3] The series was played by Hong Kong, Ireland, Nepal, the Netherlands and hosts Oman ahead of the 2019 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Qualifier tournament in the United Arab Emirates.[4][5] All the matches were played at the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium in Muscat.[6][7]
In September 2019, when Cricket Hong Kong announced their squad, Anshuman Rath was not included in the side, after quitting the national team to pursue a career in India.[8] Following Rath's announcement to quit playing for the Hong Kong team, Babar Hayat then declared that he was no longer available to play for Hong Kong.[9] Brothers Tanveer Ahmed and Ehsan Nawaz also withdrew themselves for selection.[9]
Hosts Oman won the tournament, after they won all four of their matches, with Ireland finishing as the runners-up.[10][11]
