TFG Fantasy Pundit: Keep an eye on the utility cricketers from UAE for IRE ODI

Overview 

While the Irish have more match winners in their ranks, UAE have genuine utility cricketers in their camp. Expect the slow bowlers to strike in the first ODI. Also, don’t try and experiment too much with team composition. 

Probable 11 

IRE- Wilson, Porterfield, Stirling, Joyce, Kevin O’Brien, N O’Brien/S Thompson, Balbernie, Dockrell, Murtagh, Mulder, Young 

UAE- Mustafa, Usman, Qasim, Shabber, Anwar, Javed, Mufti/R Shahzad, Naveed, haider, A Raza, Z Khan 

Players who cannot be missed 

I Haider- He enjoyed bowling in Dubai in the recently concluded Desert T20. We expect him to continue his good run. 

Stirling- He can go crazy in the powerplay and can get a good hold of the UAE pacers. Drop him at your own peril. 

K O’Brien- He is the match winner for the Irish. Surely with the bat. That said, he can also roll his arm over and get some wickets. 

Mustafa- The UAE skipper is likely to open the batting and can also chip in with his spinners.
