Ireland and Oman enter their final Group B fixture with two defeats each, leaving their Super Eight hopes almost over. Ireland’s net run rate stands at -2.175, while Oman’s is a poorer -4.306, reflecting heavy losses. Oman conceded 225 against Sri Lanka in a 105-run defeat and have posted totals of 103 all out and 120 for 9 in the tournament. Ireland, meanwhile, have dropped nine catches in two matches and lost captain Paul Stirling to a knee injury for the remainder of the event.

Historically, Ireland hold a 4-2 T20I record over Oman and have won their last three meetings, though Oman famously beat them in the 2016 World Cup. George Dockrell’s 156 T20I caps make him the third-most experienced player in the format. In form, 43-year-old Mohammad Nadeem struck an unbeaten 53 against Sri Lanka, becoming the oldest half-centurion at a T20 World Cup. Harry Tector, who made 40 earlier in the tournament, remains central to Ireland’s middle order as both teams play for pride and points in Colombo.

Squads:

Ireland:
Mark Adair, Ross Adair, Ben Calitz, Curtis Campher, Gareth Delany, George Dockrell, Matthew Humphreys, Josh Little, Barry McCarthy, Harry Tector, Tim Tector, Sam Topping, Lorcan Tucker, Ben White, Craig Young

Oman:
Jatinder Singh, Aamir Kaleem, Hammad Mirza, Jay Odedra, Mohammad Nadeem, Nadeem Khan, Ashish Odedara, Jiten Ramanandi, Shafiq Jan, Shah Faisal, Shakeel Ahmed, Vinayak Shukla, Karan Sonavale, Sufyan Mehmood, Wasim Ali
