In the 2004 Gulf Cup of Nations, Badar scored a total of three goals, one in a 2-1 win over the United Arab Emirates, other in a 3-2 win over Bahrain and another in a 1-1 draw against hosts Qatar in the final of tournament hence helping his country to reach the semi-finals and then the finals of the Gulf Cup of Nations for the first time. But Oman lost in the final to the hosts, Qatar in a penalty shootout after the goalkeeping sensation Ali Al-Habsi missed a penalty. Qatar won the match 6-5 on penalties after the match had ended 1-1 at normal time. Amad Al-Hosni was awarded the "Top Goal Scorer" award of the competition with a total of four goals.[3][4]

He scored one goal in the 2007 Gulf Cup of Nations in a 1-0 win over Bahrain. This was the second time when Oman reached to the finals but again they lost to the hosts, the United Arab Emirates.
