While chasing, Oman got off to a very strong start with a 69-run opening wicket stand between Zeeshan Maqsood (38) and Khawar Ali (34).

Here is the video of the amazing catch:
Earlier opting to bat, Ireland top-order put up a decent show to post a competitive 154 for five. Skipper William Porterfield (29 off 28) and Paul Stirling (29 off 22) shared a 48-run opening stand in 6.3 overs to give Ireland a flying start.
But then Oman pacer Munis Ansari (3/37) came to the party in the middele overs and picked up two wickets - Niall O'Brien (16) and his brother Kevin O'Brien (14) - in the 16th over to pull back Ireland.
