DER vs NOT Team Previews
Derbyshire
Derbyshire hasn’t been rather inconsistent in its performance this season. With 1 win and 2 losses in 3 matches, the team is placed in the bottom half of the points table.
The batsmen from the team haven’t been in the best of forms this season and that has been one of the primary reasons for Derbyshire’s poor performance. The opening pair of Luis Reece and Harry Came has been unable to give the team a good start and that has often put the middle order under pressure.
That said, there have been some bright spots. Samit Patel scored a half-century in the match against Leicester, while the likes of Wayne Madsen and Brooke Guest have got some good starts.
The bowling from Zak Chappell and Patrick Brown has been top-notch. The duo has picked up 7 wickets each and is among the top 5 wicket-takers of the season. They will be supported by Daryn Dupavillon in the pace department while Samit and Mitchell Wagstaff are likely to be the two spinners on the team.
Derbyshire Playing 11
David Lloyd, Aneurin Donald, Cameron Fletcher, Wayne Madsen, Samit Patel, Ross Whiteley, Brooke Guest, Mitchell Wagstaff, Zak Chappell, Pat Brown, Daryn Dupavillon.
Nottinghamshire
Nottingham wouldn’t have expected this sort of start to its campaign. With 3 consecutive losses, the team finds its back against the wall.
Skipper Joe Clarke and Alex Hales are two of the most experienced batsmen on the team and they will have to shoulder the responsibility of giving the team a strong start. While Clarke has batted well to be the team’s top scorer, he has yet to play a big inning.
The inconsistencies continue in the middle order as well. Jack Haynes had scored a half-century in the opening game but has been unable to continue the good work, while Will Young, Tom Moores, and Matthew Montgomery have often been seen struggling in the middle overs.
Coming to the bowling, Olly Stone and Ben Lister will be the strike bowlers for Nottingham and it will be important for them to pick up early wickets.

Joe Clarke, Alex Hales, Jack Haynes, Will Young, Tom Moores, Matthew Montgomery, Lyndon James, Calvin Harrison, Olly Stone, Dillon Pennington, Benjamin Lister.

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch at the County Ground is batting-friendly. The surface is hard with an even covering of grass that allows the ball to bounce and skid. The batsmen will be able to play their shots with ease. That said, the quicker bowlers can expect some help, especially with the new ball.
The team batting first will look to set a target of 180 or above.
The weather is likely to be clear with a temperature of around 17 degrees.
DER vs NOT Betting Tips
Both teams have struggled to put their best foot forward and will be desperate for a win here. We are backing Nottingham to bounce back in this match. They have an experienced batting unit and a well-balanced bowling attack that can exploit the pitch conditions to the fullest. That said, Derbyshire will not let them have it easy and we are expecting a close game.
Bet on Nottinghamshire to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
The County Ground in Derby is a high-scoring venue. 8 of the last 10 matches played here have seen an aggregate score of 330 or more and we are expecting the same outcome here.
Patrick Brown is in excellent form with the ball. He has picked up 7 wickets in 3 matches and has a bowling strike rate of 10.2. He is among the top 3 wicket-takers of the season and has a good chance of bowling yet another good spell.
