Would like to restrict some of the issue type fields to some specific users while creating an issue
You can always use the Behaviours plugin: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.plugin.Behaviours
I'm using this to control who can insert information in specific fields either at issue creation or at issue edition.
Field level security settings are not possible: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-1330
You could checkout the mentioned workarounds:

Higher in the thread Erik S makes a comment about a workaround that may be useful for some users:
