IRE vs NL Match Prediction - Oct 05, 2019

Ireland and the Netherlands have developed a healthy rivalry in cricket over the last few years. It has helped that the Netherlands has improved its short format cricket and that Ireland has regressed somewhat to now be considered equals, test match status notwithstanding.

Make no mistake about it, Ireland and Netherlands are considered as two among the favorites vying for a spot in the T20 World Cup. Not only would they like to score some psychological points against each other but they would also like to be locking down their first choice eleven at this point in time.

Ireland vs Netherlands Oman T20 Series is going to be played at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground Oman Cricket (Ministry Turf 1), Al Amerat, Oman on the 5th of October 2019.

IRE vs NL Team Previews

Ireland

Ireland recognized the need to improve its T20 cricket and has been making some changes to its side. Perhaps, just as importantly, Ireland has also been making changes to its tactics in the shortest format of the game.

In Paul Stirling, Kevin o Brien, and Andrew Balbirnie, they have three very aggressive T20 batsmen at the start of the inning. They can get stuck into any bowling attack and make them pay.

The emergence of Gareth Delany and Shane Getake also gives Ireland some interesting options in the middle order. Gary Wilson, Simi Singh, and George Dockrell are the players that will shore up the lower order.

On paper, the Ireland batting does not look bad at all. The challenge in front of it is going to be tackling the large amount of spin it is bound to face. In previous years, Ireland has struggled when it has traveled to countries where the ball spins a lot.

Its own bowling attack has pace bowling options like Boyd Rankin, Mark Adair, and Craig Young while Simi Singh, George Dockrell, and Paul Stirling will provide the spin bowing overs to Andrew Balbirnie.

Experience of playing against the top teams and in the county championship is a big plus for Ireland.

Netherlands

We really like the T20 team that the Netherlands has put together leading up to the T20 World Cup Qualifiers. There are some exciting batsmen, a lot of experienced players, and some very good spinners. On its day, the Netherlands is capable of beating any side.

Ireland is one of the sides against whom the Netherlands cricket team has had consistent success. The fact that Ireland is now a test playing nation has not changed the mindset of any player from the Netherlands, in fact, it may have made them more determined to prove a point.

Max O Dowd, Ryan ten Doeschate, Ben Cooper, and Tobias Visee are the batsmen we are looking forward to seeing in this series.

On the bowing side, Roelof van der Merwe, Timm van der Gugten, Paul van Meekeren, and Shane Snater make a very decent bowling lineup.

This team is not the best suited to slow sub-continental conditions found in Oman but quality players find a way to overcome such hinderances.

Pitch and Conditions

Oman is expected to have a sunny day without any threat of rain on match day. This is going to be the second match of the opening day of the Oman T20 series and so the pitch could get a bit slower. We still expect it to be good for batting, though, with scores of about 160 being par.
