Canada have played good cricket in this tournament as they have beaten Jersey and Nigeria by handsome margins in their first two matches. On the other hand, Ireland had defeated Hong Kong in their opening match before losing to the hosts, U.A.E. in the second game. The Gary Wilson-led side, however, bounced back with a 35-runs victory over Oman in the succeeding fixture.
Shifting our focus to the star players who will be in action today, Ireland's Paul Stirling will look to retain his position at the top of the batsmen's leader-board with a good performance at the top. On the other hand, Canada's Nitish Kumar will try to grab the eyeballs with a solid innings in this match. In the bowling department, the focus will be on Mark Adair and Jeremy Gordon.
