Preview

The opening match of both these nations will be a crucial one and can very well decide the fate of this group. Ireland always brings their A game in crucial world tournaments while Netherlands never really makes it but if they are able to beat Ireland, they can be in the picture after a long time.

Ireland’s main concern will be their batting. Even after having the likes of Kevin O’bryan and Paul Stirling, the depth in the batting order might cause Ireland a lot of problems going forward. Talking about Kevin, the Irish have retired from the one day games. Thus, in the shorter format, how effective he will be remains a question. Thus, a lot of pressure will be on Paul Stirling. He has been consistent for the Irish side for quite some time now! It’s expected that he will lead the batting line-up with Captain Andy Balbirnie, who bats at number three. In the bowling department, a lot of eyes will be on Josh Little. At 21, he can have a breakout season as the left arm pacer has gained a lot of momentum in the recent past. Another player who can steal the show is Curtis Campher. Not only with bat, Campher is a decent bowler and can trouble oppositions with the ball as well.

Netherlands are one of the favorites to qualify for the Super 12’s. They have won the 2019 qualifiers but since then nothing has been the same for the team. The team hardly plays together and thus the team bonding or the team communication isn’t very good. The legendary players, Ryan Ten Doeschate and Van Der Merwe are a part of the squad which might give them an advantage in the middle. Without a shadow of a doubt that this is the best chance that they have got to qualify for the main round of the t20 World series.

Match Prediction

It is expected to be a very competitive match. Whenever these two teams face each other, it’s always a good match. Netherlands might just be a bit ahead but in a world series, you’ll always have to keep an eye on Ireland. It won’t be surprising at all if they manage to get all the two points today.
