THE CO-HOSTS COULD SPRING A SUPRISE
Oman, featuring in their second-ever T20 World Cup, will be hopeful of going past the group stage for the first time, especially now that they are co-hosting the marquee event. Oman are unique to all the other 15 teams participating, in the sense that they are the only side to have named a squad without any reserve players. Led by the veteran Zeeshan Maqsood, Oman backed players with experience as 11 of their 15-member squad played in their successful qualifying campaign two years ago. Oman will kick off their campaign against Papua New Guinea in the T20 World Cup curtain-raiser on October 17 in Muscat.

TEN DOESCHATE’S ‘ONE LAST HOORAH’
Fourteen years since appearing for the Netherlands in the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup in 2007, Ryan Ten Doeschate will once again don the orange in the tournament’s seventh edition. “It’ll be fantastic to have veteran Ryan ten Doeschate come with us for one last hoorah,” said Netherlands coach Ryan Campbell after Doeschate expressed his desire to skipper Pieter Seelaar regarding playing another World Cup. The Netherlands, who topped in the qualifiers to book a place in the World Cup, also feature a number of familiar faces in the form of Ben Cooper, Stephan Myburgh and Roelof van der Merwe. They will face Ireland on October 18 in Abu Dhabi in their first game.
