Four matches are lined-up for the day in the English One-day Cup. Three are North Group games, whereas, one will be a South Group match. The first fixture of the day will feature two North group teams in Lancashire and Northamptonshire who will be locking hands at the Old Trafford in Manchester.
Talking about the points table, Northamptonshire with one win against there name from 3 matches are placed at the fifth position, whereas, Lancashire with the same number of wins from 3 matches are placed at the seventh position.
Lancashire’s only win of the season came in their previous game against the Yorkshire Vikings in a mouthwatering contest by just 1 run. Having made a formidable 311 batting first courtesy Steven Croft and Rob Jones 97 and 65 respectively, Lancashire found it tough to defend the score as their bowling was taken to the cleaners. Bowlers had a bad day in the office but Matthew Parkinson’s 2 for 47 from 10 overs proved valiant for a hard-fought win by 1 run.
Northants are coming into this game after a dominating 194 runs victory over Warwickshire. They are leveraged with confidence after an emphatic win last time around and they will definitely take this confidence in this game.
