 "CWC Qualifier Day 4 preview: Ireland seek recovery, Oman second victory")
The Cricket World Cup Qualifier is getting more intense with every passing match. It is now moving to Day 4 and the two matches that take place on Day 4 would be from Group B.
In the first match, Ireland, who lost to Oman earlier, would face neighbours Scotland. The Scots will be playing their first game of CWC Qualifier. Scotland are missing key players and would be in an ICC event for the first time in a decade without the iconic duo of Kyle Coetzer and Calum McLeod. However, they would pin their hopes on the young guns to try and get them past Ireland.
Ireland would look to improve upon the mistakes they made against Oman, otherwise it will become really difficult for them to go through to super six.

Ireland vs Scotland CWC Qualifier, Pitch Report
It was at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo where Sri Lanka scored 355 against UAE. The juices in the wicket available during the warm-up games seem to have dried up and it is now as good as any other batting-friendly venue.
In the second game of the day which takes place simultaneously with the first one, Oman would be up against fellow West Asian side United Arab Emirates. While Oman won their opener against Ireland, their neighbours were thrashed badly by Sri Lanka.
For UAE to remain in the race for a super six spot, they would have to win this game. Oman on the other hand, would eye yet another victory to try and almost cement their place as the top three sides from this group.

Oman vs United Arab Emirates, CWC Qualifier pitch report
Bulawayo Athletic Club ground produced a quality wicket in the Ireland-Oman game and a true wicket like that will do justice to the spin reverses of both the Asian teams in this game.
