Ireland vs Oman, World T20, Match 4: Players to watch out for

Kevin O'Brien's incredible ton against England is something none of us can forget easily and the onus will be on him to see Ireland through in the first match of the tournament through his all-round skills.

Ireland vs Oman, World T20, Match 4: Players to watch out for

New Delhi: In a clash of minnows, Ireland will take on Oman in Match 4 of ICC World Twenty20.

While both the teams are yet to make an impact at the international level, Ireland are clearly the favourites in the match considering their record against top class opponents in major tournaments in the past.

Here are few players to watch out for from both the teams:

Kevin O'Brien: His incredible ton against England is something none of us can forget easily and the onus will be on him to see Ireland through in the first match of the tournament through his all-round skills.

George Dockrell: He is the best spinner in today's match and Ireland would want the left-armer to spin a web around Oman's inexperienced batting order.

Zeeshan Siddiqui: His unbeaten 51-run knock off 32 in the ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier against Namibia had helped the side book its spot for the mega World T20 event and the team would expect the opener to play a decent knock at the top of the order.

Sultan Ahmed: Oman are ranked at the bottom in the ICC T20I rankings and they would need a special effort from their skipper to get off to a decent start in the tournament.
