List A status[edit]

It seems peculiar that these games would be granted List A status, given that Oman is in WCL Division 4. AFAIK only Division 2 and above have had that status. I guess the ICC could have made an exception due to Oman's T20I status, but that stills seem a bit unlikely. Might be worth keeping an eye on Cricinfo to see if they self-correct and/or double checking with CricketArchive at a later point. IgnorantArmies (talk) 07:53, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First match has now finished and all the cricketer's biographies on Cricinfo have been updated to show a List A line (if they didn't have one previously). I'll keep an eye on them. Lugnuts ^{Precious bodily fluids} 14:17, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I had a look at CricketArchive and the series isn't even listed ([1], [2]). But I don't know how much to read into that, CricketArchive generally aren't that quick to update anymore. IgnorantArmies (talk) 14:44, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
