The series was originally scheduled to take place in March 2021. In January 2021, USA Cricket named a 44-man squad to begin training in Texas ahead of the series. The following month, the Cricket Association of Nepal named a 32-man preliminary squad to begin training for the series. However, on 12 February 2021, the series was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In August 2021, Oman Cricket confirmed that the matches would take place the following month, with the International Cricket Council (ICC) announcing the full schedule shortly after.

Of the six matches that were played, host Oman won three of their fixtures, with Nepal winning two matches and the United States winning one.
