Karthik Meiyappan inspired UAE to a victory over Singapore in Muscat that kept alive their chances of qualification for the Asia Cup.
The leg-spinner took three for 13 on his return to the side, as the much-changed national team claimed a vital win at the Oman Cricket Academy ground.
The 47-run success over a team ranked 11 places below them in the ICC standings put UAE back in contention for a place in the main event.
One side will advance to play against India and Pakistan in Dubai and Sharjah next week. Had UAE lost to Singapore, progress would have been impossible.
