Lancashire and Northampton shire are all set to lock horns at the County Ground in Northampton shire on Wednesday. The two teams have performed exceedingly well in the ongoing T20 Blast occupying first and second position in the points table respectively. Lancashire has managed to grab five wins in the nine games played so far and Northampton shire, on the other hand, has won one less than their counterpart.
The duties to take the team over the line will once again be on Ben Curran and Graeme White, who has had a great run in the tournament so far for the Northampton shire. The visitors, on the other hand, have some big names in the line up which makes their authority on the game even more.
Pitch Report:
The county ground of Northampton shire has been a batting-friendly venue. However, the batsman may still experience some lateral movement of the wicket at the start of the innings.
