The Bahrain cricket team and Kuwait cricket team contested a five-match Twenty20 International (T20I) bilateral series in Oman in August 2022.[1] The series provided Kuwait with preparation for the Asia Cup Qualifier that will be played at the same venue later in the month.[2] The first match of the series ended as a tie, with Bahrain winning the Super Over tiebreaker.[3][4] Kuwait levelled the series by winning a high-scoring second match.[5] Kuwait won the third game,[6] and went on to take an unassailable 3–1 lead in the series after winning the fourth game.[7] The final game was a one-sided affair, with a hat-trick on his T20I debut for Shahrukh Quddus helping Kuwait take the match by 102 runs, and with it the series 4–1.[8]
