Qatar Vs Thailand, T20I Head-To-Head Record
There's very little to talk about the Qatar vs Thailand rivalry. The Doha match, in fact, will be the first meeting between the two teams in the format.
Qatar had a disappointing outing at the ACC Men's Premier Cup 2024, one of the qualifying tournaments of the 2025 Asia Cup, in April. They failed to make the knock-outs after finishing third behind Nepal and Hong Kong in Group A. They, however, registered two wins — against Malaysia and Saudi Arabia.
Thailand, meanwhile, produced a title-winning campaign at the Bhutan Quadrangular T20I Series 2024 in Gelephu. They beat Bhutan, Indonesia and the Maldives during the league engagements, then got the better of Indonesia again in the semi-final. The title match, against the Maldives, was abandoned without the toss but Thailand returned home with the trophy, justifiably so.
