The Oman D20 League 2025 concluded in Al Amerat with the Majees Titans producing a commanding performance to defeat the Royal Oman Stallions in the final. In a match that many expected to be closely fought, the Titans dismantled the Stallions’ batting lineup and chased down the target with authority, sealing their status as champions of this year’s competition.
Batting first, the Stallions endured a nightmare start as they failed to build partnerships under pressure. Their top order fell cheaply, with the Titans’ bowlers striking early and consistently. The lack of resistance meant that the Stallions never looked in control, collapsing to just 76 runs in 15.3 overs. It was a stunning capitulation for a side that had entered the tournament as one of the most balanced outfits. Their batting order, which had previously shown flashes of brilliance, simply had no answers to the relentless accuracy and discipline of the Titans’ attack.
The chase was a straightforward task for Majees, but the way they went about it highlighted their composure and confidence. Veteran all-rounder Aamir Kaleem anchored the innings with a superb half-century, scoring 50 off 41 deliveries. His knock was the decisive factor, not only steadying the innings but also ensuring there were no jitters in the chase. Partnering him was Vishva Wijeratne, whose measured 18 off 26 balls ensured that pressure never built up. The pair stitched together a 60-run partnership that effectively ended any hopes the Stallions had of staging a comeback.
The Titans wrapped up the chase at 76/1 in just 12.3 overs, making the victory appear routine despite the occasion. The clinical nature of their performance, with both bat and ball, was a reflection of their consistent dominance throughout the tournament. Their bowlers, led by a balanced attack featuring accuracy and sharp variations, had set the tone in the first innings, while their batters showcased maturity in what could have been a tricky chase.
For the Stallions, the result will sting. Coming into the final, they boasted key performers such as Anshuman Guru Prasanna, who had been one of the tournament’s most reliable run-scorers, and Hasnain Ali Shah, the highest wicket-taker of the competition. However, on the big day, neither their batting nor bowling fired as expected. The team’s inability to handle the high-pressure environment of the final was exposed ruthlessly by the Titans, who looked more prepared and better equipped to deal with the occasion.
The Majees Titans’ triumph marks a significant milestone in the Oman domestic circuit, proving their mettle as one of the most formidable teams in the competition. Their all-round performance in the final not only earned them the silverware but also sent a strong message about the depth and resilience of their squad.
As the dust settles on this year’s Oman D20 League, the Titans can celebrate a title richly deserved, while the Stallions will return to the drawing board in search of answers after falling short in the game that mattered the most.
